Bilkortege i Norrköping 1 Maj 2024 - American car cruise on May Day in Sweden

Every year on the 1st of May, the city of Norrköping comes alive with the sound of thunder as hundreds (apparently between 400-600 on the best years) of classic American cars roll through town. The majority are from the 50's and 60's, but there's usually a wide variety with a little bit of everything. There's usually even some old Volvos, VW Beetles and such too. Not to mention the hundreds of motorcycles that also ride through on the same day and usually go before the cars (missed them sadly, but I did hear them!)
