Cool video thanx! I feel a little bad for the poor car because it's a true rarety. I grew up around these and only seen one wagon in my life. I see you had to cut the floor board and do other things. Not a simple task... it's probably the fastest wartburg on the planet.... do you have the yellow curved lexans for the back windows?

I wanted to go original but there are no parts available here. Plus the cost to restore, verse value at the end, were to far apart. Now I can drive it to any parts store and get what I need to keep it on the road. As far a yellow pieces, I don't know anything about that. Did they come as an add on? The glass on my just rolls up and over. I need a sliding rag top but that's going to be difficult to locate. Either way its fun to drive and gets lots of looks.

Never heard of them. I'll check it out. I'm getting bored with the car. What do you think the value of the Wartburg would be? It's one of seven in the USA so it's hard to figure out.

webastos are a folding fabric sunroof they were popular in the 70s and early 80s but you can still get them new,you may get lucky and find one in a bone yard,as for value its hard especialy when theres not been any sold to set an example but ultimatly they,re worth that someones willing to pay
