Last weekend, on a beautiful autumn day, we were filming the T 87 when we almost coolided with this 1954 VW, taking part in a rally. We recognised the similarities and decided to make some rapid photos.

Tatras in Ostalgia museum at Usedom

T603DargenMuseum2012Last summer, I went for a visit to the Baltic coast. While returning from the Peenemünde rocket testing grounds, I came across this Ostalgia museum. Though concentrating on every day life in the former GDR including lots of East German vehicles, it also had a fairly good T 613 and a T 603 on show.  I made quite some photos, but the camera was lost/stolen.

We know that T 87s are spred around the globe for Europeans as far as Vietnam and Australia.  But ever heard of a Icelandic Tatra?  The photo was shot at Sauðholt in Holt in the county of Rangárvellir

Reactions are welcomed.

A Swiss T 87 history

no comment Posted by smitkees

T87CH2011This looks to be a very curious car.  Recently discovered in Switserland, the 1948 T87 was taken off the road in 1955, stored dry and serviced till this very day and occaisionally taken for a short drive on Swiss garage plates.  Still in a pretty good condition with its iriginal interior, the car was customised / modernised in the early fifties with fat (American?)bumpers and additionally chrome.  Remarkably is that the third headlamp is missing. Reason is that Swiss law after the war did not allow a central headlamp, as it could be mistaken by a rail vehicle by other motorists. The Swiss importer therefore removed all central headlamps on newly imported T 87.
