Pre-war stuff heading for the pros? Or is a rookie able to intercept?

For one point, please respond and identify car and year.

No multiple questions please.

The date is close, and it is European.

I see that the gas lamp headlights; are in poor condition...is this a geman car that was moved out of Gemany;...during the 2 world wars of Germany's aggression? Where does it reside now? Is it one of the following: AUDI(Horsch, Wanderer,DKW,NSU), Opel, Austra-Benz, Maybach, BMW, Henchel? 

According to the so called "Erbas rule" it is taboo to make multiple guesses per post.

Where does it reside now?   

This is the kind of information I will grant as a hint when this puzzle has stayed unsolved for a while in the Proessional section. Until then I would prefer questions that can be answered with "yes" or "no".

I've seen such combination bodies (take off the passenger car body and switch to a pickup) by a Hungarian coachbuilder. But I believe this is not from Hungary

CCa 1913 Opel?

Title: Re: Wendax 101
Post by: Wendax on April 20, 2011, 02:34:57 AM

It is not Hungarian, it is not an Opel and the year is wrong, but quite close.

It is German. I saw the car myself last year.
