You should've gotten more footage on that 80's Chevy Suburban ambulance. Never seen one with a raised roof like that. Very nice ambulances.

[@EmergencyScandinavia]

The Chevy is an old Fire Command Unit, It also appears in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKeWdJyqqbiYbKs

det där ska väl ha varit samma sorts ambulans som transporterade palme till sabbatsberg?

[@EmergencyScandinavia]

Ja det kan det nog varit, det var ju en ganska vanlig modell på den tiden. En bil från city blev ju larmade till mordplatsen men en ledig ambulans från Sollentuna befann sig alldeles i närheten på Sveavägen, så de blev stoppade av folk och lastade väl honom ganska omgående och körde in till sabbatsberg.

The horn sounds very much like those used in Germany and the bodywork on the Volvo is I think made by a Finnish firm by the name of TAMRO hence why they were also commonly seen on Finnish roads too. The Mercedes T1 van of similar age made sense really as an Ambulance in Sweden seen as Volvo have never made a proper one-ton panel van although American stuff such as Chevrolet Chevy-Vans and Ford E 350 in similar looks were also widely used as AMBULANS in Sweden during this period like they were in neighboring Norway in their unmistakable Red & White markings just as they were in the Netherlands.

Va? seriöst? Vart då? någon gammal svensk som hamnat i något U-land? eller någon svensk avkrok...

[@kaiserkarl2]
