Look what a friend just sent me from Bavaria! Auto Union's first S4???
 

Anyone know what model this is? year? It looks to be a pristine Hibiscus Red with the same "chrome" trim I have on my Avant. :-)

Enjoy,
Rick

Forgot ... that'd be late-50's, early-60's vintage ----->
 

Here's another, 1962 'S' model ...

Before being called the 1000, it was the DKW 3=6 -------->
 

Introduced in the early '50s. Here are a couple vintage Auto Union posters for the DKW 3=6 ...

They were cool back then too. Look at the eyelids.

I think the 3 = 6 DKW had a three cylinder two stroke engine.
