After almost 2 years he finished this restoration, and today he will take it for the first outing, the maiden trip…. just look at pictures, and say wawh as many times as You wish, it might be a relief to free your emotions….

As a reference the Honda Element is for scale reference and evidence of design plagiarism in the eyes of eric… the Honda is also for sale, I think Eric like to keep on the DKW for a while, but a lot of other projects might force him to sell eventually….

According to Eric the engine is built with an NOS crank, pistons, rods and modern sealed bearings.Very difficult to locate parts. oh yes, we can imagine!
