Blue (Super) Car 😃

Daily Photography #730

I know you think I'm sarcastic, but this really may be an supercar. For those who are not sure, this is Trabant, one of the legendary products of the former East Germany.

Pay attention to the features and performance: it had a two-stroke aluminum air-cooled engine of 600 cubic centimeters with a striking 19 kw (26 horsepowers) and a top speed of 100 km / h. The body was made of a composite of cotton fibers and phenolic resin called duroplasty. Since both components of duroplast were by-products of the textile and paint industry, this car was the first car made from recycled materials! Last but not least, he weighed only 615 kg.

The Trabant was very popular in Eastern European countries, and this particular specimen is beautifully blue, making it an ideal subject for the @friendlymoose photo contest #POBPhotocontest with the theme BLUE.
