Well this is new…or rather old. We’ve featured an Auto Union DKW F89L van before as a Find of the Day but I’ve never seen a pickup version such as this restored model. This one is in Argentina where apparently its lived its whole life…but you can bring this one home as it’s well past the 25-year import law in the States (& 15 year in Canada). Here’s the ad:

Did I mention that this is in Argentina? I wonder how much it would cost to ship to here. There doesn’t look to be any offers on it right now and the ebay auction ends in a couple of days. This would be really cool to have at an Audi Club event…I wonder if I can convince them to buy this? If you want to buy it, you can find it HERE.
