Thanks so much for making this great video documentary. I had absolutely no idea that Sweden was so big into 50s and 60s American cars or the the ragga culture and so many young kids that are obviously Way into working on and driving them. I've owned quite a few old 60s Buicks, Skylark and GS style, and a few Chevy impalas, been going to car shows for decades and never seen so much fun being had at night Big car shows here in the US are So uptight and way too strict, any kind of open container anywhere in a vehicle or on the sidewalk and your getting hassled big time by the cops, tickets, fines, those lucky Swedish kids are breaking like 9 different laws in this nation, really puts so many things into perspective on how much we're all so pussified here now, You can't have any where near that much fun here in NY at a car show without getting arrested,even Big shows are like funerals compared to this documentary, it's really 👌 good 👍
Thank you very much for your feedback. We are surprised ourselves that Sweden is so popular in the US car scene. What is even more surprising is the American perspective, because we would not have thought that there would be such massive differences in the way the events are run. I would recommend experiencing the car meetings in Sweden live, because it's much better on site than you think.
@@spiritwolf7 It is a big community, but we don`t know which meeting have got the most pilsnerbilars or do you know if there something meetings only for this cars in sweden?
In Sweden and in Norway and Finland the car scene with US cars is huge. That's where most of these cars are. After that it's Germany and the Netherlands' turn, but they're more likely to deal with VW cars and Mercedes than with American cars.
That is so awesome! 3 things bring the world together: CARS, FOOD/DRINK, & MUSIC! What a sweet video! Digging all the 4 door sedans, and 4 door hardtops! AWESOME!
How nice to see this. Sure can identify almost ever car in this as that's when Cars had lines to them & not like today's beer kegs looking that's hard to tell what make it is. Loved the cars of the 60's.
So just showing the big meetings? We also have cruisings, a lot of them all over the country. Those are fun. Also Classic car week in Rättvik, an entire week of cruising and enjoying summer.
There are just too many meetings in Sweden, that's wonderful and we at crank film need to film more of that too to see. Car Week is also on our to-do list.
A very nice car, has probably seen a lot. We would be happy to look in the archive to see if we have more photos of your car. If you like we could send them to you.
@@KURBELMOTION i bought in Arizona 2017 of a old man that had bought from his friend that bought it new. The man said if i do it driveable im probally the second man that had drived the car. It had been sittning for 40 years when i bought it. :)
@@KURBELMOTION I may be spending a summer in Sweden then! I did not realize the actual size of the classic car community there! Blows Canada out of the water!!!
I’ve sold parts on line for over twenty years. Have shipped a few small bits over there. The cost to move anything of medium to large size today is crazy.
That's right, times have changed drastically. You can tell that by the fact that the prices for maintaining the cars are becoming more and more expensive.
Gillar början av filmen från bilkyrkogården båstanäs? "Lots of american cars" står det.. och det är bara europiska bilar som står där 😆😆... verkar intressant ska se filmen senare :)
Det stämmer, i början ser du en bilkyrkogård, där de flesta märken är Volvo- och VW-fordon, men det här borde vara en tematisk introduktion till historien. Tack för feedbacken.
Outside usa you wont find the amount of better restored super rare american cars,hotrods,mopar hemis and american cars in general like in sweden,its a very special culture with american cars in sweden. The "scrappy ones" most favoured holy Grail impala or 4 Doors is called directly trandlated "beer cars" and are often by will put into this special ratty look for attention,like punk in the 70s almost. Usually drivetrain and all mechanics is in very good condition.
That's right, in Sweden you mostly see vehicles that are in mint condition because they are well maintained. The flashy scene handling the impalas is just a side issue, but it's everywhere, everyone is different otherwise it would be boring
Thank you very much for your feedback. The subtitles will be removed in another version that will be released soon on this channel, then without subtitles.
Would suspect most in Sweden know at least four languages. Pretty darn impressive. I’ve lived in the American southwest for over twenty years and still haven’t mastered Spanish but am still practicing!

Vi höll oss till musikgenrerna: blues/jazz. Det är mestadels tysta musikstycken med ett långsamt beat. Det är nyproducerade låtar av unga musiker, men de har stilen som tidigare verk från 40- och 50-talen.

@@lincolncadillac Men gnäll mer, det var en härlig dokumentärer som berättade om olika sidor av raggarkulturen. Vet inte om du är redo att höra det här, men folk får göra som dom vill med sin bil vare sig du vill det eller inte.
WOW Now I see that when my Nephew visted from Denmark 19 yrs ago he wanted to bring home some Amercian cars he had a 70ish Oldsmobile back in Denmark. so I took him around all the scrap yards and he bought as many parts as he could find Then he really suprised me. he bought a 1967 G T O Mint Condition & 1971 Boss Mustang Mint Condition and a whole lot of spare parts . put everything in a shipping container back to Denmark and 8 days later he flew home to meet his new toy box 🤗🤩😎
Everyone should do what they feel like doing, there will always be people who have something against a lesbian or what you do. The main thing is that you don't let yourself be won over.
These scrapcars that the younger people drive are not that popular everywhere. Unfortunately, they are a reason why many people stop cruising in connection with car meets.
@@KURBELMOTION You are right. But in Sweden they now got their own theme on a lowrider. A so called Pilsnerhäck (Beerass in english) have their airride system nowdays to lower and highthen the car. More and more of these are seen being made. But I don't like Beerasses tho, I mean. I started in the raggarculture when I was 17, when I got my driverslicense I drove around mom and dad for over 10 years in their Dodge Royal -59. Wasn't until the early end, like 8-9 years that the explosion of Beerasses came. Though without airridesystem on them. It was the generation after me that inprinted airridesystems in their cars and such. Often these youngsters, or what I shall call them are also the ones giving the raggarculture a bad name. Beerasses are a subculture from the real raggarculture. The owners often had a Volvo 740 or Volvo 240 that they missused and made it look like junk, later on they went together and bought an american car. These are called Volvoraggare. Trust me, I have walked around these cars and asked their owners what type of V8 and such, they don't know shit of anything about the car. Later on, they put a Mercedes Benz diesel in it, or a D24 Volvo Diesel in it even a BMW diesel engine, and suddenly they can everything about the engine and the car. So yeah, thats where we are today. But yeah, time changes, and if they don't change their missbehavior around carmeetings. Every carmeeting will die in Sweden. Not just the shit about not selling any fuel for gasoline/diesel engines. Somewhere in the future, this culture will die. Either from the ones that missbehave or the goverment that wanna see that all cars goes over to electric, even the old fashion V8 ones. But yeah, I have been around raggare when these had diapers on. So I have seen how the evolusion came to be. Sure, not all are missbehaving and destroys everywhere, but that is why every parkinglot closes because of their behavior. Then they are yelling and crying over that they have no where to park and party. Because they destroyed it, not only with loud music, but leaving a parkinglot that looks like 3rd world of war zone.
Thanks for the valuable information. We think that the culture will change more and more in the next few years. Politically as well as generationally, the next few years will see everything change.
