Title: Solved: Wendax 503 - Trabant P 601 (N) WE II / SZ 601 W II
Post by: Wendax on February 28, 2012, 02:29:17 AM
Just a scale model. I'm not absolutely sure about the designer and the actual name of the proposal, but there are some strong hints.

For one point, please respond and identify this proposal and its designer.

I see you modified your question. Besides from the rule not to ask multiple questions, I can tell you that it was not Hans Fleischer either. Hans Fleischer was responsible for the Wartburg design.

And I did a little more research and I think this model, which I found pictured without a proper name, is not really the Trabant 610, but a very closely related design with a name of its own. But it was done by the same designer as the 610.

Post by: Allemano on April 04, 2012, 02:49:41 AM
Well, it strongly resembles a quite known P601N Funktionsmuster from 1982, which might differs in 1:1 from the scale model.
Title: Re: Wendax 503
Post by: Wendax on April 04, 2012, 03:04:58 AM
I have a different name, although 601 is a part of it.

I only can find Trabant P 601 (N) WE II on all sources, but unlock it if you're sure that I'm wrong as I don't have much time for further searching.
Title: Re: Wendax 503
Post by: Wendax on April 04, 2012, 03:24:54 AM
We are talking about the same car, so I'll give you the point as I'm not absolutely sure about the correctness of the designation I have, which is "SZ 601 W II".
