Old Bonanza
Definitely one of the wildest show cars in Sweden (World?)!
It is not easy to describe Torsten "Krom-Fritte" Fritz from Huddinge outstanding creation.
Having built several motorcycles before, Torsten got the nick-name "Krom-Fritte".
He started the 1915 C-cab project in late 1970s. It was covered in detail by Björn Renvall in Colorod magazine.
The finish and detail work is flawless. Interior in white leather and plush by Claes "Bil-Ekiperingen" Eriksson. Paint by Conny Mattsson at Frittes Billack.
There is not a part that isn't polished, chrome-plated or candy painted on the car.
The car was finished just in time for the Hot Rod Show 1981 Biva-huset, Hammarby Fabriksväg 45.
An obvious price-winner at every show.
Torsten has kept the car in his garage in Huddinge for several years, but lately it has been lended to publisher Bilsport's
small museum in Blekinge.
