When SVT visits the motor meet, the sun shines and the visitor area next to the beach in Haparanda is well filled with cars of all kinds.
The Gustafsson family has travelled to Haparanda from Kiruna – a tradition that has continued since 2013. Manne Gustafsson, 10 years old, is excited about the meeting.
"The best thing is to smell petrol and hear the engine sounds," he says.
A thousand cars on the beach
Around 1,000 cars and 8,000 visitors are expected over the weekend.
– The turnout is fantastic! On Saturday, there is a real bang and the weather gods seem to be with us, says Kåre Mogemark, organizer and chairman of Classic motor meet.
The meeting is arranged in collaboration with Wheels magazine and Classic motor.
Visitors from near and far
"Of course, people come from all over Sweden. Then we have visitors from Finland, Norway, Germany... We reach out a lot, says Kåre Mogemark.
