1960 Goggomobil T-300 w/ sunroof
Hans Glas in Bavaria accomplished what the majority of microcar manufacturers could only dream of: namely the large series production of a very popular car over a very long period of time.
Manufacturers of agricultural machines, Glas and his son Andreas developed their small car prototype with Isetta- style front-opening door in the fall of 1954. The pre-production series of 50 cars had no rain gutters. Until September 1955, fenders were still screwed, not welded together and had intake scoops on the rear.
Roll-up windows were introduced in October 1956.
From September 1956, a 300cc motor (15hp) was available in addition to the 14hp 250. The front deck had a "bonnet" pressed in, louvers on the rear fenders and a grill on the trunklid scoop. A hot 20hp 400cc motor became available but was seen mostly on U. S. export cars. The doors were front-hinged from March 1964, this being the last major change for the sedan, called limosine in Germany.
An electric pre-selector transmission was also available.
By November 1966 BMW were the new owners, and the last limosine left the factory in June 1969.
