I hope I am quickly removed from the market on all of those.
I would do evil evil things to the Zundapp.
I would also accept an Isetta.

They may be small, but micro cars offer a ton of fun. You can pick up yours via the Mecum auction dubbed “The Small Wonders Micro Car Collection from the Estate of Ken Weger.”
The lots range from projects to turnkey cars. Many of the favorites are represented: Amphicar Model 770, BMW Isetta, Morris Minor. There are also a few more obscure offerings, such as a 1980 Marathon C360 hybrid delivery van, a Cargile EEV prototype and a 1901 Olds Curved Dash replica.
Bidding is open now and ends on December 12.
I hope I am quickly removed from the market on all of those.

Who was Ken Weger? Seems like a way cool guy, and a GRMer in spiritm albeit with a larger budget than most of us. Would have been pretty fun to know him!

For some reason, I love that hybrid van: 1980 Marathon C360 Hybrid Delivery Van Auction | Mecum On Time
Someone could do some awesome things with it.
Hey! It a Berkeley!
Are those not a good project car?
Oh man... Multiple Vespa 400s and an Autobianchi Bianchina...
This could get me in a lot of trouble...
Hmm ... one advantage of micro cars is that they don't take up much space. I wonder if I can fit one in my shed. Although, I wonder if I fit in one.
