1957 Tatra T603 Sedan

The Tatra 603 was a car driven by chauffeurs in Czechoslovakia, its birthplace, transporting high ranking politicians and factory officials. Few if any were bought by private individuals although there may have been some exceptions in East Germany. No exceptions in either Cuba or China where cars were shipped. The 603, a large 4-door sedan with a rear mounted air-cooled 2545cc V8, was a car that received extensive testing in a wind tunnel. Mostly assembled by hand, some 20,422 cars were believed to have left the factory.
