  Hi, Welcome,

My name is Arild Kolnes, and I am the owner of this Cadillac 1958 convertible.
This car is located in Sola, Norway. I bought the car in 1995 as a restoration project. (I had a Buick 1958 at the time.)
The car was in bad shape, and there was a colony of ants in the driver’s door. It was heavily rusted in the floors, rocker channels, and under mouldings as well in the trunk. Interior was teared up,+++.
It took me nine years to get it back on the road (2004). Well,, I didn't restore every day, I was from time to time pretty sick of it, but inspiration from magazines, other American car enthusiasts, friends, and my wife has kept me ongoing with the restoration. I'm glad it's done, and can take it for a ride when I feel for it.

Jeg har på eget initiativ startet privat verve kampanje for organisasjonen American car club of Norway. Som amcar entusiast har jeg hatt stor glede av arbeidet Amcar har oppnådd som organisasjon og bilpolitisk.

Mange tar dette for gitt.     Derfor,        leser du dette på min web side er du antagelig intresert i amcar på ett eller annet nivå, du har kanskje en bil eller flere. eller du planlegger å få deg en bil, du trenger heller ikke ha bil.. Som medlem får du bilbladet Amcar 10 ganger I året, Du får en svært fordelaktig forsikkrings avtale for din/dine americanske biler.

Amcar har et stort bibliotek med bilstoff og en meget kompetent stab som vil gjøre alt som er mulig for å hjelpe deg med bilen din hvis du trenger opplysninger om akkurat din modell. Medlemskaper koster ikke mer en en tank bensin. Les mer på her
