Built in Germany, based on post-war German-car?

Djetset · September 08, 2009, 03:11:57 AM

Yes.

pnegyesi · September 08, 2009, 03:47:40 AM

Another Champion-based special?

Djetset · September 08, 2009, 03:49:46 AM

Not Champion-based, and also intended for regular production (although i am uncertain as to how many were built).

pnegyesi · September 08, 2009, 03:55:47 AM

Hmm, there are fewer and fewer possibilities.

Was Lloyd a donor?

Djetset · September 08, 2009, 04:02:00 AM

No!

pnegyesi · September 08, 2009, 04:11:54 AM

Let me be a bit more precise, was this created in West Germany?

faksta · September 08, 2009, 07:45:38 AM

Could it be an EMW car?

pnegyesi · September 09, 2009, 11:19:27 PM

And if it was built in West Germany, could this be the Espenlaub prototyp from 1952?

Djetset · September 18, 2009, 03:40:35 PM

I'm still not certain if this was East or West German, but I do know that it is neither an EMW or Espenlaub prototype.

pnegyesi · September 19, 2009, 01:22:25 AM

Hmm, getting interesting. Could this be built on an Adler chassis?

Djetset · September 19, 2009, 03:00:08 AM

No, not an Adler either!

pnegyesi · September 19, 2009, 03:53:32 AM

Any connections to the Borgward-Hansa-Goliath empire?

Djetset · September 30, 2009, 03:59:31 PM

No known connections with the Borgward empire.

I'm not allowed to post here Mr. Jaray, and so are you!

Paul Jaray · October 01, 2009, 11:06:43 AM

Why should I post here?

Time to move this up to the Pros...

Indeed!

It's the German "Puck"

The one-off was built in 1952 by the brothers Krick from Hofgeismar. The chassis was donated by VW, the rear axle was borrowed by a Opel Kadett. The body was hand made of Aluminium.
Powered by a Zündapp KS-600 rear engine it developed 22 HP which supposedly propelled that tiny car to a top speed of 150km/h

Djetset · October 28, 2009, 02:28:45 PM

At last, it is indeed the German Puck, powered by a Zundap engine. Well done

Just found a letter regarding the car -

Allemano · March 14, 2011, 04:24:29 AM

Interisting! Do you know what it dates from?
Must be definetely before 1993..

woodinsight · March 14, 2011, 04:34:24 AM

The letter was in Markt September 1986

Allemano · March 14, 2011, 04:39:16 AM

Would be interisting to know if it still exists.
