The Auto Union 1000 SP is a sports car produced by Auto Union beginning in 1958. It was equipped with a 981cc two-stroke 3-cylinder engine producing 55 PS (40 kW; 54 hp). 5, 000 coupes and 1, 640 convertibles were produced between 1958 and 1965. In 1959.
The car takes strong styling cues from the Ford Thunderbird.
This example was imported from South-Africa, and is registered in the UK as a classic vehicle, MOT and Tax exempt.
It has recently had a complete engine rebuild, new brakes, and new tires fitted, it starts on the button and drives superbly.
The paintwork is presentable but wears patina as you would expect from a vehicle of this age.
The interior is vey nice as the pictures show, with some patina and markings on the roof lining.
More photos can be provided on request.
This is a very unique vehicle and draws attention wherever it goes.
