I remember seeing a late-50s magazine ad for the DKW that showed one climbing a set of stone steps in front of a building. I understand the DKW's 2-stroke 3 wasn't nearly as well engineered as the one in the Saab 93/96. There was also a small van on the same chassis. I actually saw one parked in Los Angeles ca. 1977. >> The DKW 2-stroke 3cyl was used in many cars of the period, including Saab. Saab then used the Ford V4, then the Triumph I4, and then redesigned it to the engine they use now (except for the GM V-6!). -steve -- Steve Valin http://reality.sgi.com/steve_engr steve@sgi.com "Time wounds all heels" -Crackerbash
