- In this video, I share with you the mechanical and electrical issues my 1984 Trabant 601S currently has. I would also like to take a moment to not only thank my friend in Germany for the new engine installation and electronic ignition conversion but also the new parts I received. Feel free to reach out to IFA-Service Heinz in Harthausen, Germany for help with your Trabant, Wartburg and Barkas today!

that's really in great condition all things considered! and the amount of distances you've driven it already, that's incredible. re the car horn, we replaced the one in ours with a motorcycle horn, the old one was just burned out.
East German cars in the usa, us cars in Germany... The world is crazy.
I'm from Germany and had in my live a Lot of Trabant's... For more as 10 jears i drive Ford F250😅.
My english is not so good, but when you needs Help or parts send my a Message.
By the way: the "blanket" on the engine does not protect the engine from heat or cold, but reduces the engine noise! In German, the thing is called "Schallschluckhaube"😅😅
Grettings from Germany
Danke, my friend. I really appreciate you! But ja, she is such a curiosity over here
Ah, those non-cancelling indicators... It is so easy to make a turn and forget they're still on! Good luck with getting the little Rennpappe sorted! It will be a fun experience to go through.
The previous owner put in a flasher relay loud enough to hear. So that's sorted! 😄
@@McElroysMotors My old one just made a soft clicking sound, as I recall. Not easy to hear over the engine noise.
I remember these cars coming in to Germany after the wall coming down. O May god they were slow and smoked. Then they got them on the auto bahn. Crazy times indeed.
On the Autobahn?! What was their top speed? 80 km/h?
@@jeromeglick yes. In the slow lane with the truck. 🛻 and then had trucks trying to go around them. They were slow to start up in traffic. And smoked
You don't need to worry about the cosmetics of this little beauty. I live in the city where they manufactured the engines for these cars and most of the 34k Trabants on german roads look waaaaay worse than your little lemony princess.
Good to know! :)
@McElroysMotors Hi, I saw your previous video, about having to buy your car back. Mobile phones can so sensitive, you only have to TOUCH them, and you lose what you were watching! But I found THIS video, so I can contact you about something you mentioned in THAT video! You mentioned you have Cerebral Palsy. I don't know if you are, up to now, religious. But did yoy know, in the Bible, people with Cerebral Palsy got cured? Look these texts up:
Matthew9:2-7
Mark 2: 3-12
Luke 5: 18-26.
Good luck to you!
P.S. I think your Trabant videos are really interesting. You are the person who REALLY understands this car!
@@nygelmiller5293 I am definitely not a religious person, but I definitely respect all religions. Yeah, with cerebral palsy, recording videos is not easy and editing them? That's a nightmare! But I'm not here to complain! I'm here to provide content for you all! :)
I try to go to the Trabant show in Washington DC every year. I was there for 2017, 2021, 2022 and 2023! I plan to be there this year with my car but who knows if I can actually get it there! Definitely not driving it 400 miles one way.
Ey cool man, greetings from east germany xd
2-stroke cars for the win!! :)
good video! love the trabant
Hey thanks! She and I go way back!
Amazing car and story (:
Definitely needs a bit of love but you make a Good owner for it!
Regarding the hazard flashers-- Does the front right bulb also not light up when you activate the right turn signal?
That is correct.
I guess favoring and owning a Trabant is like doing the same for a Chihuahua. You have to go all in 100% or the looks and temperament will drive you nuts LOL.
