As far as I know there is presently three Continetal Mk II's in Denmark, they have all been imported within the last 20 years or so. I dont think any was sold here when new.
One is owned by a friend of mine, Henning Meyer. He is a former real estate broker now retired, with a huge car collection of mostly american cars.
He owns a white 1956, it could use a bit of restoration all over, but it is a nice sound car.
There is also a light blue 56, that along with the fantastic looking black 57, both was imported to Denmark in the late eighties by big time car collector Damgaard-Nielsen. Damgaard-Nielsen used to own the only official Ferrari dealership for all of Scandinavia. He once told me that his rearend was not shaped for a Ferrari, so he took a liking to the softly sprung American cars, of which he used to own a lot. Lately he has begone selling out of his collection, and that is why his two top notch restored MK II's have found new owners this year.
If I run into the owners of the three cars, I will let them know about this place.
I will try and attach pictures here, if it doesent work you can go to my album and see them right here (http://johnnybgoode.myphotoalbum.com/view_album.php?set_albumName=album07) and here (http://johnnybgoode.myphotoalbum.com/view_album.php?set_albumName=album02)
