Small "A" in CdA, and low rolling resistance I presume.

Goggomobil

Quote:
In 1955 production of the first Goggomobil began and in 1965, over 300,000 vehicles had been produced and Goggomobils were exported to 68 countries..................

They seated two adults and the advertising for the cars showed two children in the back seat...........

The Goggo continued production by Glas until the mid 60's when it was sold to BMW and some of the later larger Goggos were Bimmer badged Eg the 770cc model..........

And two of Luigi Colani's truck concepts.

Somewhere I probably have a picture of the 1952 Silver Streak and 1964 Clark Cortez together, that I owned at the time. Hanging onto them didn't work out.
