I have a 1964 Trabant P600. Likely the only one in North America. Uses
13" tires though ;-( and the original East German ones are getting thin.
BTW, Trabbies are a lot better in some respects than their reputation,
but overall it's a pretty crappy car. Still, if you keep it in the late
50's/early 60's comparison (instead of 20 years later when they were
still building the same car), it doesn't compare _that_ badly with the
mini-car competition.
If anyone wants more info, let me know. (PS I'm always looking for parts
and literature... would especially like an English-language workshop
manual!)
