How about these? These pictures were taken in 2007 and this lot is located in Hubbard, Ohio on Route 62 near the intersection of Interstate 80. The cars are sitting near the road and there is what looks to be an older service garage just behind the cars.

The garage is open and there are old cars inside. I don't know if cars are for sale, or are to be restored, but it sure caught my eye when I drove by.

If you're talking about the black car parked next to the bright red '59 Ford, I think it might have been a mid-1950s Mercedes--perhaps a 220 or 220D. At around 1:00 you get a pretty good shot of the front end. The hood and grille are missing, but the fenders and front doors look like the Mercedes to me (especially around the headlight trim).

Hyvaa paiva Mika,

Yes those are DKW's, which was imported here for some years; it's amazing to find two together! I saw a nice restored one at the Orphan Show in Atlanta a few years ago, and they are pretty rare cars over here.


wk's olds & Fred,

Thanks so much for posting the pictures & videos of these cars; there's bound to be something there for some of us!
