Staffan Runhag's 1937 Ford
1937 Ford Tudor Slantback owned by Staffan Runhag of Enköping, Sweden. Staffan bought the tudor as a stocker in 1964. After buying it, he gave it a hot rod makeover, installing Radir wheels amongst some other small changes.[1] It was his first hot rod, and also one of the first hot rods in Enköping.[2] Runhag's Ford was powered by the small Ford flathead V8.[1]
Staffan traded the car to someone in Västerås, thereafter the car changed owners and it was in pretty bad shape when Klas Wingren in Borås found it.
Klas began an extensive rebuild of the car back to the Street rod it was in earlier life. For example all fenders had been cut up so they had to be replaced.

Ivve Hallberg then finally painted it beautifully in gloss black with flames in murano pearl.
It was finished in 1978 and featured by Staffan Runhag in a Colorod Magazine article.
Since then it had several owners. The car was for sale 2021 in a FB group modified for street/strip racing.
