Christer has been putting together a pretty awesome colllection of vintage Mopar memorabilia, some of these photos are, well, awesome. The vintage dealership photos especially tickled me. We had less than one page of photos in that section, now we are on the third page. :shock:

You can see his latest contributions to HH at the links below;

If I counted them right, there are over 90 new images from Christer at the links below. They range from 1963 - 1969.

A photo of a crashed Plymouth cab (the sign "taxi" on the roof is the same as "cab"). Note the outer rearview mirrors who are placed somewhere in the middle of the front fenders. All Mopar cars originally sold in Sweden seeems to have them placed there. (The photo was taken in the city of Trollhättan, Sweden, 1964.)

A photo of a crashed Dodge and a Morris. The photo was taken in june 1959 at Österlånggatan in Trollhättan, Sweden.

It almost looks as if the Dodge is more damaged compared to the Morris in that poto. Doesn´t it? I had expected the relation to be the opposite but maybe the whole side of the Morris is demolished...!?

A big house? I would rather say the opposite. You would be surprised if you knew how I live. :o No furter comments. :P

Actually, it was this excellent site :s001: :evil: :s005: :s008: :shock: that made me start collecting, so the answer is less than 10 years. :D
