| Description |
7. Oldtimertreffen am 07.07.2012 in Greußen - Ausfahrt zahlreicher Teilnehmer nach Bad Tennstedt. Wartburg war der Handelsname der von 1956 bis 1991 im VEB Automobilwerk Eisenach gefertigten Personenkraftwagen-Baureihe des Herstellers IFA. Der Name leitet sich von der gleichnamigen Burg am Produktionsstandort Eisenach ab. Der 1966 eingeführte Wartburg 353 folgte in seiner Grundkonzeption (2-Takt-Motor, Frontantrieb, Kastenrahmen) seinem Vorgänger, erhielt aber ein wesentlich modernisiertes Fahrwerk mit 13"-Rädern, Einzelradaufhängung und Schraubenfedern rundum und eine neue, damals durchaus dem internationalen Standard entsprechende Karosserie mit einem Kofferraumvolumen von über 500 Litern. Wartburg was a car marque manufactured in East Germany. The name "Wartburg" derives from Wartburg Castle on one of the hills overlooking the town of Eisenach where the cars were manufactured. From the 1950s, Wartburgs had a three-cylinder two-stroke engine with only seven moving parts (three pistons, three connecting rods and one crankshaft). The Wartburg 353, known in some export markets as the Wartburg Knight, is a medium-sized family car, produced by the East German car manufacturer Wartburg. It was the successor of the Wartburg 311, and was itself succeeded by the Wartburg 1.3. The Wartburg 353 was produced from 1966 to 1988, becoming the Wartburg model with the longest-ever production run. During its lifetime it saw several changes and improvements, the most notable of these coming in 1985 with a slight front facelift and a new one-step carburetor. The Wartburg 353 was the creation of the former German BMW production facilities (called EMW under Soviet occupation). It was based on a 1938 design, and powered by an engine with only seven major moving parts, including the crankshaft. Hence the popular saying among owners that one drives a car, but only maintains a motorcycle. Domestically, it was used for government transportation, sometimes as a police car. Delivery of consumer builds often could take ten to fifteen years. |
