Sorry my mistake! According to my source that's almost, but not completely correct. Your item till your next reply!

[HEMI 426]

I am sure that it is correct... Common mistake is to call this car NAMI Spuitnik, but that's another one. The answer you need is KD or KD Sport 900. My mistake is name of the car which is basis for KD and that's ZAZ 965 ( not 963 )

[Allemano]

There's indeed the little mistake that you're describing, but it's still not the number I have, try again!
(With hope that my source is more reliable than yours)

BTW it's #9 not #8. I've written the numbers under the pics.

You did it right, but according to my source this on is ZAZ 966 based. I've already put your guess to the right answers.

Bad luck.   If it's any consolation it regularly happens to me and this is the first time I've managed to jump in first for a long time!
It's often your puzzles I'm waiting for then you go and move them whilst I'm not looking...!

Heh, perhaps I will post a warning on the the next batch....!

Might be, but this is definetely wrong! Google Carlux Auwärter VW T1 (if you can ) and you'll find various sources with the right informations.

The German text says:


Reader's letter:  "[...] Actually it's generally said that this car was bodied by Swiss coachbuilder Beutler."

Reply from Oldtimer Markt:  "Indeed this Bulli* was even mentioned in the auction catalogue as "Beutler Bus" most likely as its whereabouts is Switzerland. But after all it's the "Auwärter Carlux" built in a small series in 1962. Only three other cars are still known today"

*nickname for all VW transporters in Germany

Yes, I see what you mean.
Most of them say the same year (1963) and quite a few of the sites also say: "Beutler?"
Maybe Beutler designed it?

One really does have to be careful not to believe everything on the Web.
It's amazing how many things everntually become accepted as The Truth because they are on the Web, when really they are nothing of the sort!
So a Carlux it is!
