Last weekend marked the 4th installment of the All Pontiac Day at Wenngarn Castle, north of Stockholm (just a stone's throw from Arlanda Airport).

Nice weather, and more than 150 Pontiacs from 1929 up to 2006 showed up from all over the greater Stockholm area. Among those a 1969 Trans Am owned by a fellow living in my part of town, Sweden's fastest Catalina, Indian motorcycles and a bunch of other interesting cars.

Some pics that I took of the event. (Captions in swedish I'm afraid.)

No, it' was a US import. The history before Leif (the current owner) purchased it from a used car salesman in Belgium 1976 is unknown. Might have been an early import, or someone in the US armed forces leaving it behind when going home. At that time, muscle cars were virtually impossible to sell over here...
