Hasse Zetterqvist/Greg Ekholm 1937 Ford
This Ford -37 was originally rebuilt by Hasse 'Z' Zetterkvist, well known for SHRA and as a car dealer in Stockholm.
The body was a Tudor Sedan but since Coupes were more popular Hasse decided to modify the body to a 3 window coupe. (Something Ford never created!).
Hasse 'Z' did the paint job himself in green candy and Ingemar Becker painted the fenders in dark green.
The chassies was mostly left stock but the brakes converted to hydraulic.
The car was later sold to Bengt Albertsson in Värmdö who tuned the flathead engine with Isky 3/4 cam, lifters and valve springs.
Bengt also put Offenhauser heads with 9.2 compression. The elecrical system was changed to 12 Volt.
1978, the Sofia Hogs member Gregge Ekholm bought the car and made further modifications, e.g. made it a convertible, new paint etc.
Gregge had the car until 1988 when it was sold to Thomas Karlsson in Häljarp, Skåne. Current owner is Magnus Jönsson in Flyinge, Skåne.
