Post by: guido66 on August 01, 2009, 09:29:48 AM: I know very little about this car, I only have a name and a year. One point for who comes up with the same information and one point for who can tell more about this car.

Post by: guido66 on August 10, 2009, 05:54:07 AM: No, if it was a Panhard et Levassor I would also know which country it is from ;)

Post by: Joao Gois on August 10, 2009, 08:36:31 AM: Yes, of course. But you gotta admit the radiator logo is quite similar...

Post by: guido66 on August 10, 2009, 10:09:39 AM: Who knows, If someone can prove my source to be wrong, i guess it's worth 2 points ;D

Rolland-Pilain?

Nor that, If you google picture search the name that I have, this is the only relevant car picture that comes up.

Post by: Arunas on August 27, 2009, 07:54:34 AM: French make?
Title: Re: GG-31
Post by: guido66 on August 27, 2009, 09:26:31 AM: The name sounds French, but I don't know if the car is...
Title: Re: GG-31
Post by: Arunas on August 27, 2009, 09:38:27 AM: I believe, that we already had this one: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=6386.0 :(

The car was built only in 1907, Paris and it isn't mentioned even in Beaulieu encyclopedia!
Title: Re: GG-31
Post by: guido66 on August 27, 2009, 10:01:07 AM: I guess it's the same car. You'll find my source if you google picture for Guerrey 1903

Because of the different spelling I hadn't found that post. The picture in the other post was taken at the 2007 techno classica in Essen and one source says it's from 1902 (as posted in the other thread)

Here's aqoute from another source, now that I know the correct spelling: (the picture also comes from this source)
Guerry & Bourguignon war ein Kutschenhersteller in Paris. Für den Automobilsalon in Paris baute man 1903 dieses hier vorgeführte Fahrzeug. Der Wagen mit seinem Einzylinder De Dion Motor fand aber so wenig Zustimmung, dass man sich entschied kein zweites Automobil in der weiteren Firmengeschichte zu fertigen. Der Wagen verschwand in der Versenkung und tauchte erst in den sechziger Jahren in Holland wieder auf. Heute ist er in der Nähe von Oldenburg zuhause.

wikipedia says that this car was only produced in 1907

Merge them? What do you think?

Yes please, I'm convinced it's the same car. Only the year (1902, 1903 or 1907) is a mistery to me. Is it ok to give a Arunas a point for finding the other thread? ;)

Post by: Ray B. on August 27, 2009, 04:58:44 PM: Merged.
As for the point, it's your puzzle and strictly your decision.
