Well, now, ain't Norway exactly known for its flashy wheels, especially not the extra-cool ones. I mean, who's gonna be hootin' and hollerin' about Pivco City Bees or Think City rides? And don't even get me started on the Buddy Electric, formerly known as Kewet Buddy, which used to be Danish before it went Norwegian. Folks mostly just think they're eco-friendly, not exactly cool. But once upon a time, there was the Troll car, ahead of its game with a lightweight fiberglass body, sportin' a decent enough design for its time. That was back in the '50s, nearly 70 years ago. And speaking of the '70s, that's when Ivo Caprino got serious about bringing Kjell Aukrust's Flåklypa car to life. IL Tempo Gigante started as Aukrust's sketches but hit the big screen in the '70s in a flick called Flåklypa Grand Prix.

Chevrolet El Camino has seen some mighty fine concepts made in the past ten years. Some of 'em are pretty boring, built on Vauxhall VXR8 and Holden Monaro ute-pickups. But there’s also been some real badass versions based on the modern Chevrolet Camaro. This ride is best known for its heyday back in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. These cars are pretty much considered classics today, especially those from the 50s before its prime. You can drift like a champ in a Chevrolet El Camino and catch the eye of some real fine ladies.
