Title: Another Maico
Post by: blob on May 06, 2010, 10:33:28 am
There seems to be more of these in existence, can't remember if this has already made an appearance on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.de/Maico-MC-500-seltener-Kultkleinwagen-50er-Jahre-/300423746895?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Automobile&hash=item45f2a6954f

I thought from the side it looked somewhat British but from the rear I'm not so sure... ???

I thought about Gutbrod but then thought another Maico! It is logical after all. Never had one of these cars, or a Gutbrod. The few that have appeared at events like Story have always equited themselves well and looked very fine. Time was I would have been in the m,arket but not at the moment. MOT on Nobel next Weds so that will be fun. Mini tidied and really not at all bad. Needs welding of course, they always do. Heinkel also tidied but I need to raid the stash for missing bits and it needs some tinkering before it moves on. Hopefully all these have new owners sorted.
