Remarkable Limousine

[photax]

Hi !

I saw this car at a motor show a couple of years ago: A streamlined czechoslovakian Tatra 603, manufactured in 1961 and offered there for 5000 USD. The V8-engine has ca. 2500ccm ( don´t remember exactly ) and 105 HP which will allow you to fly this UFO at a highspeed of 103 mph. These cars were primarily built for the Czech government and diplomatic agents and came mostly in black or dark blue. The owner of this one obviously decided, that a strange car would even look much better in pink. Although the car has a license plate, the towrope underneath the car dont give rise to optimism...

You don't see too many of those this side of the pond. Personally I think it would be ugly no matter what colour it was. The Czech's did a lot better with their sporting rifles from that time period.

I thought it was a Citroen at first.

The french also built some extraordinary cars in the sixties ( like the Citroen DS models ), but this is a real cold-war rocket !

It reminds me of the electric bumper cars we drove at The Canadian National Exhibition when I was a kid.
