Any of you heard of a trabbant? ( trabbie ) They were an East German car. You got the joy of actually mixing the gas and oil. they were a resin body, on a wood frame, with a 2 cycle engine. You could tell when an older trabbie had been in an accident because of the splinters in the road. Yep, wood frame. W. Germans hate them, they have about a 50 MPH top end.

I would love to 'rod' one, but the EPA bans them from even entering the country! They look like a scaled down 53 chevy with oversized bumpers.

BTW.. one of you mentioned working on a 36 chevy.. did it have a wood 'subframe'?
