Auto Union Munga

Post by OldRed »

Spotted this one while driving past a tractor dealership in my little two horse town. Didn't know what the hell it was but the Auto Union badge looked promising.

Turns out to be an Auto Union Munga - unfortunately it's been sold and is on its way to a collector in Pretoria. Wouldn't have minded adding this one to the collection, as ugly as it is...

I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.

It should have a one piece windscreen - the split is not original.

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.
