Ole Kristian Espeland's 1956 Ford
1956 Ford 4-door owned by Ole Kristian Espeland of Seljord, Telemark, Norway. Ole's car was actually built and sold new in South-Africa. The car belonged to a norwegian sailor who brought the car with him to Haugesund, Norway in the summer of 1956. The car was right hand driven, and another left-drive dashboard was installed. The car was bought by Ole in 2008. He painted the car silver with the top painted blue. The car was nosed and decked to achieve a cleaner look. Firestone tires were installed of course. Ole used the car as his daily driver, both summer and winter, sporting the stock Y-block engine.[1]
