The DKW Car - History, Restoration and Tuning, Part One
In this 1986 publication, the collected wisdom of the DKW Owners Club of Great Britain was pulled together in one place. The booklet provides brief summaries of the history of DKW with expansion on certain models. There are a number of short articles about maintenance, but the majority of the articles cover tuning and modifications. The booklet wraps up with an informative history of the DKW Owners Club.
The original booklet contained very few photographs and only a few line drawings so I have added some to liven the post.

This publication is one of a series of club publications by the DKW Owners Club of Great Britain through the 1960s to the 1990s. I have scanned a large archive of newsletters, which contain similar helpful information here: https://dkw-gbclubarchive.blogspot.com/
