Hi!

We are a group of people organizing the celebration of 60 years since the Prix of 1955 near the Råbelöv Circuit outside the town of Kristianstad on July 18 this summer.
In a haste we now would like to invite all owners of cars that raced here the three years competitions were held here up to1957.
I hereby ask forum members to help identify any of the following cars, or whereabouts, in order to reach the owners for an invite. Or to get the message across to owners in alternative ways.
Of course similar, GT and normal cars of same age are welcome.
As well as spectators!
Any help much appreciated.

I noticed your initiative and wanted to mention that we are now the owners of Raymond Flower's Austin Healey 100S which competed in the Swedish Grand Prix of 1956, finishing in 14th place. I hope this information is helpful.
