Archival footage from the 1964 rally season featuring Erik Carlsson (1929-2015).

I remember meeting him at a Saab international meet at wicksteed park one time, I'll never forget it. He was such an excellent driver and an excellent person aswell. I'll never forget how the things he said helped me with rebuilding my car. Truly a legend

I worked for SAAB in the 80s and had the pleasure of meeting Erik a number of times, and remember him as an absolute gent.

I've got some friends here at Collinsville Motor cars in northwestern CT who are the SAAB and Volvo experts in the state . Just sent them this vid , If you need advice or repairs look them up . GREAT Vid, since I am half Swedish and a former Volvo Marine dealer good to see this type of video. Subscribed !
