It stank like hell, but it worked.
So where's the link??? That link is some devil search engine.
I learned fairly recently that the old Trabant was made of cotton. Hard to believe these have become collectors items, especially in the eastern part of Germany
Look on the web for, Trabant Cars
New electric Trabant cars. Old Trabis never die. cuhulin

One of my students has one... it's a hoot!
2 stroke 2 cylinder.. sounds like a popcorn maker at idle. Breaks down about every 10 miles but still a hoot. BenWhat usually causes his Trabant to break down about every ten miles? I want a warbling Wartburg car, the sporty looking model. cuhulin
Gee, I dunno, but referring to the Trabant, which had a cotton waste reinforced plastic body, as being made of cotton is kinda like calling the early Corvettes, which had a fiberglass-reinforced plastic body, made of sand.
I once read somewhere years ago, if a Corvette catches on fire, get far away from it.Something about some poisonous fumes. cuhulin
