Not anymore. You won't find it by searching "Tretauto" on eBay. ;)

I don't have exact dates, but one source mentions it being around before 1960.

I guess it is time for another hint. Part of the car's name refers to an organisation the boy was probably a member of.

Though I haven't found anything so far I guess could it be a Pionier?

NAFA Pionier from 1956

QuoteAuf eine nette Idee, die Sammeltätigkeit der Kinder nach Altstoffen zu entfachen, kamen die Kollegen des VEB Altstoffe. Für insgesamt 3 kg Papier, Knochen oder Lumpen, die natürlich bezahlt werden, dürfen die eifrigen Sammler eine Runde in einem richtigen Auto mit Benzinmotor fahren. Bis zum 10. Juni 1956 wird diese Sammelstelle am Berliner Alex bestehen bleiben. Anschliessend werden die Kollegen des VEB Altstoffe mit ihren Wagen für jeweils einen Monat in die einzelnen Bezirke geben.
UBz: Edith Stahnke konnte zwar noch keine 3 kg Altstoffe abgeben, aber auch sie darf den "Nafa Pionier" einmal ausprobieren. Sicher wird die nun eifrig sammeln, um weitere Fahrten machen zu können."
Datierung:   14. Mai 1956

Almost. Believe it or not, the Bundesarchiv has misspelt this one. The first letter is different. Locked for you to find the right name.  ;)

Then it must be MAFA.

Post by: Wendax on May 15, 2011, 01:08:14 PM
Yes, Mafa standing for Maschinenfabrik (machine factory).

Another point for you.
