I suppose there was very little metal on the body at least, so they have not rusted to pieces. And with an electric motor, they don't leave behind a cloud of smoke any more! :-)

The world’s first production cars with fiberglass bodies… out of necessity! The company that owns this one has about a hundred regular ones on hand, both as a display and for Trabi tours of Berlin.
