Attention Sterkoder....

I was sitting "flickr-ing" through some of the albums at flickr, and look what I came across:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/36081480@N08/4850819404/

The photographer is named Stig, and in his albums, he's got some 6098 images from Norway with buses, ships, trains and cars....

Remembering how passionate you are about old buses, this would send you into hours of looking at images....

Take a look, it starts here...:

Oh yes, I can assure you: Sterkoder did like...., very much!!!!!!

Thank you, my friend, for showing me this...., I'm so glad I start one week of autumn vacation today, making it possible for me to browse through all this

Last Thursday, as I left work, I found this green little beauty parked beside my car at the Vestbase carpark.
What do you say, Oistein...., those register numberplates, when did they get changed by two letters and five numbers....??? 1973...?

As some will know, who have seen my car, but I attend many car shows in the UK throughout the summer. Here are a few images that I took at the Breakfast Club Meet in August.

I have always been found of this type of Volkswagen mini-bus... especially since one of my dear friends in Thailand (which is a famous rock singer) showed me his. It was featured in one of his music videos as well.

I have always wanted to travel round Europe in one of them. My friend used to own one and they have quite a following, if you pass another on the road they always flash their lights at each other

Really looked through these albums of Stig at flikr.com now, and Jan-Olav..., have you seen all those very nice old hurtigrute-pictures he has taken...?
Pages 27 and 28 for a start

I posted all of them by links in each of the ship's thread already...

Just wait until you reach 47 yourself. The first thing that disappear is the ability to be over all at the same time and be on top of what's going on everywhere....

(That said, in a friendly tone, thank you for the tips).

I must quote and comment one more time....., as I'm in awe over this flickr account of Mr. Stig Baumayer!!!!
Good thing I have a week off, because here I am, filled to the rim with nostalgia and memories, and I'm only at page 39 of over 300

Wonder what lays ahead of me?

This guy is sitting on a treasure, mostly to norwegians who experienced the time of his images, but also to europeans,as it seems like this guy and his family has been doing alot of travelling in the late 50s, 60s and 70s....
And have his father owned a number of interesting cars..., wow...!!

Sterkoder, this nice Beetle with Oslo-plates was a nice car indeed. Oslo switched to this "telephone number" register plates in 1958. The rest of the country had its own "fylkesbokstav" on the numberplates. This system was in use until replaced with the current registersystem in April 1971.

NB!
Don't forget that you on veteran cars (more than 30 years of age) can get old fashion numberplates today.
You can choose from the old "one letter and 1-5 digits" or the old Oslo style 6 digits in pair without regard to where in Norway you live.
There is only one drawback - You can't change to another old style numberplate even with a new owner. The number you choose will follow the car to the car breaker.
