1958 DKW 3=6 Auto Union, spring morning road test drive

Early spring morning jaunt in my 1958 DKW 3=6, fresh from 13 year restoration (not entirely complete yet, but driveable, I could wait no longer) www.mphspecialties.com
It feels so good to drive a car that needed so much work, I thought would never be done !

@2stroketurbo For one more time, (i saw all the videos of your car),i must say that you made a really good restoration. I really appreciate that you fix many issues at your own, this is very good. I am not 100% negative with your project, i want to make this clear to you. Also, as you said this is true, nothing can't be undone, this is good! :)
The owners of these cars must respect the ''personality'' of their cars. I am sure that you maybe your are the only owner of DKW at your state!!!

A nostalgic ride! My dad bought a new DKW F102 in New Zealand, mid-60's and by that time, the 3-cyl 2-T engine of 1200cc was state of the art. 75-80mph cruising was well within its comfort zone, with superb brakes and suspension to match. Up to about 55mph it could out-perform 6-cyl 4T cars of double its capacity, but then it levelled out a bit. Dad kept it for 5 years and did 55000 miles trouble-free. It wouldn't have been a good tow car, so he got a Wolseley 6-110 to replace it.

dkw 1000 sp new exhaust soundby dekawee610 views
Your job is great. Really!
but...
I don't believe that you drive that car without front and rear bumbers.
What kind of exaust is that? Did you ever see double exaust at DKW?
What about the colour? What can i say about that yellow and some red at the lights? ???
What kind of covers are at the doors with the dollars???
Why you are pushing so hard the engine to run fast? The car was cold!
This car must be original 100%. This car request respect I am very sad seeing that video....

I understand your concern for orginality. I enjoy personalizing my cars and having fun with them. Nothing was done that can't be undone to make it 100% original. I love it the way it is and anxiously look forward to another drive......
