I’ve been corresponding with a gentleman in Greece about his
Attica, an almost forgotten European microcar powered by- you guessed it- a
200cc Heinkel engine. Giorgos sent me
several pictures which I have listed below.
The car is made of fiberglass, although the floor appears to be made of plywood. The bodywork is derived from a Fulda, which was originally a German design that was made in other countries (such as Sweden) up through 1970. If you want to see some examples of those cars check out this auction at Bring aTrailer and the link to the Bruce Weiner Auction from 2012.

If you have spare parts to these cars any expertise to share I suggest you contact Giorgos
