Youngstorget

A screenshot from the 1967 short film "En dag i November", where Per Ivar Kolgrov's 1948 Mercury Convertible car makes a brief appearance. Recognized as one of Norway’s first custom cars. Per Ivar Kolgrov, a butcher by trade began customizing the Mercury around 1961–1964. Once completed, the car became a local sensation, as few could comprehend how such a radical custom had been approved by the Norwegian vehicle licensing department. The film captures a day at Youngstorget in Oslo, showing market vendors, drunks, classic cars, and local youth. Click here to watch the full movie on NRK.
