    Stock-car racing in Sweden, very popular during the 1950's, and what destroyed thousands of 1930's cars during just a few years....
    the rules were simple, just be first in goal after the right number of laps wins, extra points for every car you can flip over or crash out while racing.

    The text on the trunk says: Here you can see the rear.[​IMG]

    Good Eye!







    More of Morton & Brett....

    http://www.coachbuilt.com/bui/m/morton_brett/morton_brett.htm

    "Elvin D. Morton, a Canadian living in Indianapolis and a partner, Jack Brett,
    opened an auto body and paint shop at 811-815 East Twenty-Third St.
    Indianapolis, Indiana sometime before the start of 1918. A classified ad in
    the May 20, 1918 Indianapolis Star announced:
    “Automobiles painted by Morton & Brett are easily recognized by
    their indestructible crystal finish; all prices. We are now equipped to handle
    this work in addition to special bodies. Morton & Brett, 811-815 East
    Twenty-third St. North 9300 or automatic 41-189.”
    Another Indianapolis Star classified dated November, 10, 1919 reads:
    “Morton & Brett, High-grade special bodies and painting for all cars. 811
    E. Twenty-third St., North 9300.”

    Elvin D. Morton is credited with the design of those early speedster
    bodies and applied for a U.S. patent on September 20, 1919, for his
    “Speedway Body for Motor Vehicles of the Ford Type” which was awarded design
    patent # D54668 on March 9, 1920.
