Did you know that Skoda Auto were looking to build a car for the masses. It was to be front engined as their cars were then, but it had a very humpy back to give a tortoise shell shape appearance to it, like some of the bigger Tatra limos. And did you know that Dr Porsche learned his engineering at the Skoda locomotive works before returning to germany, and the rest is history. mix Hitler, Skoda, Dr Porsche and a humpy backed peoples car, and what do you get? And all Hitler wanted was the weapons. -- Carl Robson http://www.bouncing-czechs.com
