DKW F1

Dampf-Kraft-Wagen, Deutsche Kinder-Wagen, Das-Kleine-Wunder, Des-Knaben-Wunsch, it seemed everybody had a field day with the DKW initials.
 This little front drive car with the choice of 500 or 600 cc 2 stroke engine was released in 1931 and was only sold for two years before being updated. Of the 4000 sold, apparently none were ordered with the smaller engine. The body was made of wood. the frame also had wood sections and the car weighed only 900 lbs.
