    Hi,
    Just a couple of crappy pics (scanner doesn´t work) of one of those rare German built full size Fords. This is an ´38 convert. I know it resembles a US ´37. Actually none of the body parts don´t match with US cousins. These parts would have helped the owner when he was rebuilding it. Actually it is most likely the first "street rod" in Finland built in seventies. Of course there were a handful of Ford based race cars (specials) that were also street driven earlier. But this one owned and built by Sven Björkman was built the same time drag racing started here in Finland.
