1959 Auto Union 3=6

$29,995.00

VIN:

Odometer: 07872

Engine: 896cc I3 (two-stroke)

Trans.: 4-spd Manual (column)

The 3=6 was a German vehicle produced from 1953 through 1959 by the DKW division of Auto Union, the present day Audi. The name denotes the comparison of the 3-cylinder, two-stroke engines vs. the 6-cylinder, four-stroke engines that were becoming more popular. In the U.S., these cars were known as the DKW 900 which signified the engine size.

These vehicles feature a front-wheel drive system with the engine mounted inline with the car. The radiator in installed between the engine and the passenger compartment. This design eliminated the big driveline tunnels and seemingly expanded the size of the interior cabin area.

This 1959 3=6 is an F93 "pillarless" coupe model. It is very original and solid with no rust visible anywhere. The paintwork is very well kept and free of damage. The 3-piece wrap-around rear window gives a very scenic view from any angle of the interior. The interior, itself, is very clean also and the dashboard instruments could be displayed in a museum of modern art (MOMA).

These 3=6's are very rare and collectable. They're significant enough that Audi Tradition maintains a DKW 3=6 in their fleet of museum vehicles that are occasionally brought out on historical motoring events.
