Volvo 940 wagon & Anne Carson. Stockholm.

Five days in Stockholm, Volvos everywhere, and only caught one of these.  It was nice to see an old friend the day we arrived in Stockholm... Anne Carson won the Nobel Prize for Literature.

..and kept turning up everywhere.

Rolls Royce Cullinan & Rolls Royce Ghost. Stockholm.

They are priced so that only difficult people, or more likely, their corporations, can own them. Kinda ordinary-looking, too. The Cullinan is an SUV! named after the largest gem-quality rough diamond ever discovered in-where else-South Africa.

Citroën Type H. Stockholm.

 

Spotted selling baked goods in Stockholm: This looks like an update on the Citroën HY vans that were produced in France and Belgium from the late forties until  1981. But it's an electric update, according to Regit. cars

"The legendary Citroën Type H van is back, but not quite how you remember it. Thanks to a collaboration between UK-based Citroën 2CV experts, The 2CV Shop, and Italian design firm Caselani, the retro icon has been reborn for modern roads.
"Built on the bones of a Citroën Relay, the new Type H keeps the vintage, corrugated look of the original while adding today’s tech and usability. It is a van that turns heads without sacrificing everyday practicality."

Two 1976 Toyota Fj40's. Waldo County, Maine.

 

There they were, by State Highway # on a sparking October day. Here's another Fj40, from New Mexico. And a SWB Fj pickup, from the Netherlands. Another, c.1978 in New Hampshire. A bigger Fj40 pickup, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

1989 Chevrolet Caprice Classic

 

We love to catch the dreamboats of this era. And these were the cars produced after GM's  'downsizing'  the Seventies. So the bloat was gone. And they are crisper than the whale-ish 1990s cars. Here's another Caprice of the era, also in excellent shape. Then, a 1993 Caprice. And a 1985 Chevrolet Caprice Estate Wagon.

Araminta

 

That's Araminta, 33' ketch. Designed by L. Francis Herreshoff, built in 1948 at the Hodgdon yard in E. Boothbay Maine.
