Congratulations...driving them is the best part as far as I'm concerned.
She looks pretty good too!

May you enjoy it for many years.

And don't forget photos and stories for the Newsletter so all our members can enjoy it with you.

Fantastic! 200 miles on the first run! It will only get better from here! The joys of owning an Auburn. Enjoy many more trips with your family - that's what this hobby is all about!

Congratulations!! That's a great looking car, 200 miles 1st time out!, you've got a lot of guts and a great car. If it's original, it will only be that way once, good luck, enjoy, and thanks for sharing. Bob Esten and The Rum-Runner

Andreas:
Congratulations on getting your car on the road. If it made 200 miles on your first trip, then you have a good car. It looks great in the photos and I'll bet it turned a few heads in Berlin.
Kindest regards,

Hello friends,

I d like to show our first succesfull ride with our 8-98.

I purchased this unrestored car 2 years ago and did not find the time to restore it until now. I could no longer see this car standing around... Thatswhy I renewed now only the electrical wiring, all fluids, made a complete lubrication job and and started it... <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_surprised.gif" alt="" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o --> . No problem!

Yesterday, a sunny Sunday, I took my family in the car, lots of wrenches, oil, water and stuff in the trunk, and started a cool ride around Berlin.

Here we start:


a short break:


back in town:



And: surprise surprise, abolutely no problem! We completed a 200+ miles tour without looking to any tool. Ok, it rattles here and there, the first gear is pretty noisy, the exhaust not tight, the brakes not very efficiency, but: Fun fun fun...

This is true quality. The engine seems to be not opened dekades ago and the car did not run very much many years long.

Now I will try to fix some minor technical problems and give the car a ride from time to time, until I will find the time for a complete body job.

I will have some questions here and there and I hope for some help from you further on...

Regards,

Andreas
