Hey, here's the first article ever published about Anders Nygren, from way back when he first started FHP, it was published in MCM.

I wonder if the repro UL cases will ever see development--I remember Anders had plans but never got them going...

I don't think we will ever see UL cases in production. Even the cylinders are now on hold. S&S bought flatheadpower but it seems they have no interest in making UL parts available for sale again, except for the aluminum heads.
PS: Anders is a hero. BUT, He should kept FHP in Sweden. But that's another long story...

The tale of money and people is very involved when it comes to Anders and FHP. It is so sad that he was never able to complete his dream. S&S scooped FHP right out of the dumpster down in Louisiana. Sadly, I have lost contact with Anders. The last that I heard from him was that he was running a county road maintenance shop near his home in Sweden
