1954 DKW F91 Convertible Karmann

Joop terpstra writes; "I found this car one year ago in a enormous warehouse in downtown Lissabon-Portugal where a collector has around 300 classic cars: "This particular DKW's are very rare in convertible form, built by hand at Karmann in Osnabruck/Germany in 1953-1954. Sadly only a few survived worldwide. After recieving it from Portugal by truck I picked it up in Rotterdam where it stood in storage with a flat tyre, empty battery and a broken engine. Now I have repaired all these problems and it is ready for summer 2010. Twostroke 1000cc watercooled engine with some 50 hp and a topspeed of 135 kmh. Frontwheel drive and fourspeed columnshift. Check this car out at YouTube ."
