ABOUT THE ARTIST
Johan Wedenstrom's interest in cars originates from his father, who had beautiful family cars like a Jaguar E-Type, Jaguar Mark X, Volvo 164 and others. Initially Johan started out as a graphic artist, but he soon realised that photography was his great passion. He has worked in the car industry for 20 years and his first customer was SAAB Cars in Sweden, where he was working for the PR-department. Pretty soon he was transferred to the studio for their sales catalogues, where he was offered to work with their high-end brand models. Based in Gothenburg, Sweden, Johan spends a lot of time travelling and photographing for both Swedish and international customers all over the world like Volvo Cars, Volvo LV/Trucks, Polestar, Volvo Ocean Race/Puma, Volvo Penta, Husqvarna Global, Husqvarna Construction, Sony Ericsson, IKEA and others. He received the Golden IAA, International Automotive Award in 2008.

ABOUT THIS COMMISSION

The rare Saab 96 Monte Carlo 850 was built by the Swedish automaker to commemorate the victories of rally driver Erik Carlsson in the 1962 and 1963 Monte Carlo Rally. The Saab 96 had a longitudinally-mounted engine layout. As first designed, it had an 841 cc displacement, 38 bhp three-cylinder Saab two-stroke engine. By 1965 this was increased to 40 bhp. An optional 52 bhp version of the engine, with triple carburettors and oil injection, was used in the Sport and Monte Carlo models. Preceded by the 93, the 96 was superseded by the Saab 99.
