Here is a 1953 Goliath GP700 Kombi Wagon, recently purchased by Mike Self of Cinncinati Ohio. Sounds like Mike
is planning on restoring her. Car was owned earlier by Al Roof of Columbus Ohio.

Below is a 1958 Goliath 1100 wagon with factory sunroof owned by Shawn Brown of VT, formerly owned by Dave
Mullett, also of VT.

This is a very rare model that features a factory cloth sliding sunroof that is fully operational and
in very good shape. It also sports the optional bucket seats, which look to be leather. Most Goliaths came with a bench
seat.

Shawn has continued the restoration that Dave had started. and has found a better front bumper from
a donor car in New Mexico.
With the fuel line hooked up to a gas can, the car fired up, running good the first time. Shaun has
the car running good, and is collecting parts to finish.
The car is amazingly solid, with the exception of the interior floor from the back seat on up, which needs
to be replaced. Car still needs brakes and the gas tank redone. Note the absence of the turn signal lights below
the headlights which normally appeared on Goliaths bound for the US. Makes it look more like the European versions.

Rear door shows some rust around the bottom, but is still structurally sound...

...and shows what the original paint really looked like!
Note the well for the spare tire.
Before Shawn got it, here's how Dave aquired the car...
a vintage car enthusiast found the car sitting outside a garage near where he lived in Burlington VT.
He had never heard of a Goliath before, so he got on the internet and found this website. Looking at the forum, he found
a posting by Dave Mullett and noticed he lived in Vermont, too. So he contacted Dave and told him about the car.
Turns out that the car was only an hour away from Daves house! The owner was willing to sell, and Dave then got Goliath
#2! Dave is now focusing his efforts on his 1960 Goliath wagon (see the Dave M. Page), and offered the red '58 to his
friend Shawn, who has very enthusiastically taken on the resto!

badged as a Borgward??? Note the rhombus on the grill.
Approximately 487 wagons were assembled after the official closing of the plant (Summer '61) between 1961 & 1963
using a surplus of parts, and I believe this example is one of them. Some of the last 1100s were marketed as the "Borgward
Hansa", and I have seen sales literature that documents this (see my "Selling The Goliath" page on this site).
