Vehicle description
The NSU Spider is an automobile which was produced by NSU Motorenwerke AG from 1964 to 1967. The Spider was the first Western production car in the world to be powered by a Wankel rotary engine.
The water-cooled single rotor engine and standard front disc brakes differentiated the car from other cars of similar type of the period. The body was designed by Bertone. First appearing at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1964, the Spider featured a two-door cabriolet body based on that of the NSU Sport Prinz coupé introduced back in 1959. In addition to the folding roof, the Spider was distinguishable from the hard top car by a grill at the front. As with all NSU cars at the time, the engine was rear-mounted: in order to improve weight distribution, space was found for the Spider’s radiator and for its 35-litre (9 US gal; 8 imp gal) fuel tank ahead of the driver. The front luggage locker was in consequence small. There was a second luggage area in the rear of the car above the engine. It appears that NSU Spiders were painted either red or white. You are bidding on a very fine piece of automotive history, only app. 600 cars are left worldwide. It is on Canadian registration and should not be a problem to get it registered in the US.
