The plastic body was attached to a one-piece steel chassis with front wheel drive and independent suspension. The two-stroke engine spewed black smoke because the engine ran on a gasoline/oil mixture. Top speed was 60mph with no turn signal, fuel gauge or trunk liner. Even though the Trabant was a Soviet era automobile produced by the state, it cost more than a year’s salary for the average worker, which had to be paid in advance.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/gricketts/">gricketts</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/gricketts/51004046981/" title="Bombed"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51004046981_5d1196bdae_m.jpg" width="160" height="240" alt="Bombed" /></a></p> <p>By the beginning of the 20th century, the Hungarian economy was modernized and industrialized, and Budapest considered the birthplace of the modern world. Budapest enjoyed a period of prosperity and renewal that was the envy of Europe.<br /> <br /> However, the 20th century soon turned ugly as war, oppression, and revolution brought bombs, artillery, bullets, and destruction to the streets of Budapest. Many buildings display the damage from street fighting and bombing, and many more continue to suffer from the neglect that followed WWII. <br /> <br /> But, even though neglected by the Communist regime, battered by Russian artillery, bullet scarred by departing Nazi occupiers and the street fighting of the 1956 revolution—Budapest retains an air of faded but true grandeur.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/140128469@N07/">czegenyp</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/140128469@N07/51003318826/" title="ER-BBB"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51003318826_3453fa43f1_m.jpg" width="240" height="135" alt="ER-BBB" /></a></p> <p>Aerotranscargo<br /> Boeing 747-433(BDSF)<br /> Built in 1991.
