Late 30s Cadillac Touring Limo, Revisited

Written by Ken Altes

An earlier post had pictures at Mercury Charlie’s old location. I was asked to take a few more for a prospective buyer who had found the car on this blog. These rare cars were used at national parks like Yellowstone.

Stunning Zundapp at Revival Cycles in East Austin

Written by Ken Altes

The German Zundapp K800 was made from 1933 to 1938, powered by a flat four turning out up to 26 hp, running through a four speed transmission and shaft drive.  Almost 19,000 of a similar model, the KS 750, were provided to the German Wehrmacht for use in the war.  Not sure which model this is.  In the early 30s, Zundapp worked with Ferdinand Porsche on the early designs for the Volkswagen Beetle. See link at right for Revival Cycles.
