Seen this before?

If so, 1 point could be yours.

Good luck!

Colani GT?

DHoffmann · November 23, 2008, 10:12:15 AM

I think this looks a bit too normal to be a Colani product.

ImpishGrin · November 23, 2008, 10:16:11 AM

Well, the GT looks rather normal I would say

ImpishGrin · November 23, 2008, 10:49:06 AM

Thurner RS. I had a right feeling about this car being german (just like the Colani GT).

They look very similar, but it's not the Thurner RS.

So do the experts know what it IS, if it ISN'T the Thurner?

Gepard Mk I

Correct.

What car is this?
Who designed and built it?
When was it completed?
What was it based on?
One point for the full and complete answer.

Experts?

woodinsight · May 15, 2012, 03:19:49 AM

Pros?

Gepard TT, designed by Helmut Kretschmann and built by him together with Clemens Ahrend and Otto Betzner, both formerly working for Martini. It was shown at the Essen Motorshow in 1969 and was based on NSU TT mechanics. 10 cars were built between 1969 and 1972.

Spot on!

I've just noticed that this was a repost of Arunas' Gepard Mk 1.
Would an admin merge them please.....

This one (by DHoffmann)? Are you sure they are the same model?

Sorry I meant DHoffmann.....
I'm not sure now if they are the same car as mine appears to be the competition version.
Perhaps best leave as they are?

Wendax · May 15, 2012, 04:16:40 AM

They are both Gepard TT. I guess no two of them were identical. They were all meant for competition use, but could be driven street legally too. Here's another picture of DHoffmann's car ...

Wendax · May 15, 2012, 04:19:24 AM

.. and one of the puzzle car:

woodinsight · May 15, 2012, 04:22:21 AM

Thanks Wendax - I guess that answers the question

And another one with an oil radiator up front:
