A not too good picture, but I don't know another one.
For one point, please respond and identify this car, its builder and the year.

Panhard?
No
CAM II by Karl Amesmeir 1952 Deutschland
Yes again. Congratulations and another point.
The unaltered picture.
BTW, it is Carl Amesmeier, CAM being the acronyme for Carl Amesmaier München.
(This is my post # 3333, having been awarded 330 points so far (near miss :D ))
According to an internet source this car should be in Thyssen-Bornemissza's book about Microcars. I have that 1945-55 copy, but it's not featured there. ???
I can assure you that it is not in there.

But it is in Thyssen-Bornemissza's site. Alas, I can't access it anymore :(
I have found a picture of the CAM 002 with Lloyd-engine (300 ccm). The picture was taken in front of the northern side of Nymphenburg Castle in Munich. In the same year, I was born about 500 m from this building.
It seems to be the original photograph to the multiple photocopied Thyssen picture. ;)
No original - it was printed in a magazine article about all CAM versions.

Yes, it's blank now! Maybe there have been some legal issues...?

What a pity ! I just discovered this site. I hope that the Baron will overcome these difficulties.

Maybe the Baron hasn't been asked before and actually
he closed the page...
As far as I know, the Autolexikon Thyssen site is still in test. In a letter I received from the Baron some months ago, he wrote me that he is planning to digitalize his archive and to go online with some help of Motorbuch Verlag. So it is him who stands behind this project.
