Excellent finds, finster! Indeed, 2 Zuendapp Janus are a rare sight in a single photo; less than 7000 were ever built. Goggos you can understand (might be a 2nd one 9 cars ahead of the one prominently seen in foreground; and possibly 3rd one on left curb 3rd car up from Janus), since there were significantly more produced (214,000) than BMW's Isetta (161,000) in their production runs. Strange that there is no obvious Isetta in the Kiel shot, though that might be the nose and roof of one to the left of the dark Beetle on the opposite curb (5th car beyond the Janus). |

I recycle old cars and parts, other than when I rot, that's as Green as I am going to get.
Thanks to my Tesla driving neighbors, I feel more relaxed driving my SUBURBAN and old VW's.
