For one point, give the year, make, model, and coachbuilder of this unusual car.
(A hint: Trying to complete the set)
Maker perhaps Hotchkiss with the grille details removed??
I did not alter the grill. This car is a Hotchkiss.
Puzzle is locked for 24 hours for Bill Murray to find the rest of the answer.
Unlocked. Who can solve this Hotchkiss puzzle?
Hotchkiss 20CV aeroprofile by Gaston Grümmer 1934
Locked for MSRGRT. 20CV is not the model I have for this 1934 Hotchkiss Aeroprofil by Gaston Grummer. I'm looking for a number.
have to admit I am somewhat confused, some sources say it is a 680 chassis, however, others claim Gaston Grümmer only did a single body, based on the 20CV chassis
msrgrt:
For what it is worth, I have also seen it as being based on the 680 chassis.
Another point to MSRGRT for the correct answer. My source indicated the car was a 680, but I will leave that part off the title.
We are getting quite the collection of Gaston Grümmer puzzles on here.
Thank you, sir :D
I understand that 20 cv Hotchkisses (6 cyl. 3485 cc.) were named 620 in 1933 (they overcame the AM80S model), and were re-named 686 in 1936 (so happened to the 617, 6cyl. 3016 cc. 85 cv, that became the 680). So, if this car actually was a 20 cv from 1934, it should have been a 617 or a 620.
