Really nice photos! And a great day in the life of this car! Who would have thought in 1938 that this car will be re-born in 2011 ? Congratulations to a really perfect work to the HO-team and for sharing this work here!
Hope to see the car in Hamburg and waiting impatiently for the book about this car! |

Congratulations to Traugott & Christian Grundmann, to Mathias and everyone else who has worked on N°6 so far. This is a great achievement, well done
Also, nice to see that the whole team was participating in the 'wedding ceremony'
