Summary created with AI assistance · Source: merkur.de
- An angler discovered the car near Elchingen in the Neu-Ulm district at the end of May.
- During the recovery, divers located the vehicle at a depth of about five metres before a crane lifted it from the river with support from more than 50 responders after over seven hours.
- The heavily corroded Opel Manta A, probably built around 1970, has regained its yellow paint, but Peter Wirsching does not consider restoration realistic.
- The owner remains unknown after a witness reportedly told police that the car had been stolen from her then-husband in 1972, while its route into the Danube remains unexplained.
What the rain washes away may go away, but the rest is really a morbid work of art in the broadest sense.— Peter Wirsching, managing director of the Oldtimerfabrik Neu-Ulm; commenting on the wreck of the Opel Manta found in the Danube.
