Andy watched this fellow with me while he rebuilt his Trabant engine. Not sure what the interest is for a cat, but it was fascinating to see what made that little DDR auto run! In four videos, he completely rebuilt the engine and it actually ran, well, ran as well as Trabants ever did.
All furthering the feline plot to take over the world !
Yes, and Andy will run the motor pool!
I would love to see that video. The Tabant is famous or more rightly infamous! I think you are right about them still being a car you can DIY
I wonder if Andy has been reading Motor Trend and is in the market for a kitty car. 🙂
I do get a few automobile magazines, which I put on the floor next to my reading chair… Maybe he reads them in the dark, being a crepuscular being with great night vision!
Does Andy own a mechanic mind ?
In friendship

I wonder, Michel! Later, watching a video about a DKW model made in 1960 or 1961, he fixated on a turn signal interior dash light that blinked in red! Ha! Silly cat! I think he fixates on the motion. He also likes kitty videos like one that has a simple wiggly string crossing across the screen at random times and points.
It is remarkable, Doug.
Andy has a very technical mind!
It surprised me that the videos held so much interest for a cat. The guy moved around a lot, but didn’t look particularly like cat prey. LOL!
Have a commemorative day – and Thank You.

I’ve had my veteran’s appreciation thing when I got a nice discount on my smart phone recently just for proving my service by giving then-=m a copy of my discharge paper. Some restaurants in town are offering free meals for veterans, but I won’t take advantage of those since I can only eat so many times a day and I have too much food I need to finish in my refrigerator. Anyway, thank you!
Maybe Andy is planning to buy a car. I am sure he has not seen Trabant there, but here in Finland we have seen them, and nowadays their value is really high.
Nostalgia for the DDR? Could be! If Andy buys a car, I’d hope it is a VW Arteon….a black or dark blue one!
my grampy bought one in the 90’s it was the trabant kuebel, technically a cabrio with a tarp roof what had more holes than a swiss cheese… he gave it away after he gave up farming for a pocket moneeh… but to see the prices for such a ride today makes me pondering LOL
There’s a solid market for them. I think it’s because they are simple machines that the average home mechanic can work on, unlike modern cars with all the computerization and electronic wizardry to deal with.
