The load bed style may give a hint as to what continent this mini truck is from.

JMC · June 13, 2011, 03:12:49 AM

Pros?

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 04:14:59 AM

Chinese truck?

JMC · June 13, 2011, 06:08:08 AM

Yes.

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 06:12:01 AM

Does its manufacturer still exist?

JMC · June 13, 2011, 07:06:41 AM

Yes, it still exists, it became the most productive Chinese vehicle manufacturer nowadays and it has a different name made of initials.
The first initial stands for the old name this company had when they produced this truck.

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 07:17:13 AM

You mean, FAW?

JMC · June 13, 2011, 07:19:58 AM

Nope, not FAW. That's the third most productive Chinese manufacturer.
The company name couldn't be 'First', either.

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 07:20:45 AM

SAIC then?

JMC · June 13, 2011, 07:22:14 AM

SAIC it is!

The S stands for the name of the old factory this truck was manufactured by. Care to tell me the name?

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 07:26:15 AM

I assume it is Shanghai City Tractor & Automotive Industry Company, but I am trying to find its model designation. Don't reveal it just yet please

JMC · June 13, 2011, 07:28:01 AM

You just mentioned Shanghai, that's the name i'm looking for.
Locked for you to tell me the model name and year. Good luck.

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 08:13:31 AM

It was called the SH130, made by the Shanghai Automobile Works' Truck PLant. Introduced in 1968, produced from 1970 for about ten years. Powered by Shanghai's own 490Q engine with self-produced transmission. It had a two-ton capacity

JMC · June 13, 2011, 09:26:48 AM

Congratulations, a well earned point.

pguillem · June 13, 2011, 02:30:19 PM

Googling in chinese is fun. But rather strange : Google Images doesn't give anything for Shanghai SH130...

pnegyesi · June 13, 2011, 03:27:52 PM

try it with Chinese characters and eventually you'll find it
