Opel chassis?
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 26, 2012, 02:06:07 PM
yes, with that you just earned a 24-hour lock.

Since I know absolutely nothing about early Opels, I can only guess 1915 Opel Blitz chassis.

Please unlock as I've nothing to add.
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 27, 2012, 02:03:51 PM
well, the chassis is one thing, the coachbuilder would be more important.
It is a bit earlier than 1915 and definitely not a Blitz

Open for all again

I have just been informed that in a weeks' time you can solve this puzzle very easily.
In other words, a directory of Hungarian coachbuilders with short introduction on each will finally be published on our site.

That's wonderful news!
In the meantime is the coachwork by Glattfelder?
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 28, 2012, 06:14:53 AM
No, but you are in the right direction :)
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: woodinsight on August 28, 2012, 06:20:34 AM
I have to say I don't know very much about Hungarian coachbuilders or where they were located. (I guess all will be revealed soon :))
Another guess - Frohner-Pasztelyi?
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 28, 2012, 07:51:18 AM
No, Glattfelder was closer in terms of the right era (coachbuilders mainly active before 1st WW). Frohner-Pasztelyi was set up after 1st WW

Zupka?
Title: Re: PN #303

not Zupka

Nagy Geza? (I have no idea if it's in the right era)
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 28, 2012, 12:49:32 PM
It's not in the right era. Géza Nagy was active from the mid-1920s.

The only other name I have to offer is Balogh and I have no idea if that's within the correct time span either......
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 28, 2012, 03:26:00 PM
Balogh was also active in the late 1920s. Not by him

Röck
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 29, 2012, 12:04:58 AM
Rock was not a coachbuilder
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: D-type on August 29, 2012, 03:31:17 PM
Sorry, I thought they did commercial and bus bodies.
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 29, 2012, 03:49:08 PM
Röck was a machine factory which also produced passenger car chassises

Kölber?
Title: Re: PN #303
Post by: pnegyesi on August 30, 2012, 05:37:57 AM
Yes. This is a röntgen (X-ray) automobile prepared by the Kölber carriage company on an Opel chassis in 1913. Photo is from the Smidt Múzeum in Szombathely, Hungary
