NAM special bodied Jeeps, 1949

It would be most interesting if one of those special bodies has survived...

Some weeks ago there was an Austrian post-WW2 Jeep conversion for sale on ebay, but no builder mentioned, so it didn't turn into a puzzle.  

In 1985, there was a Jeep converted to a homebuilt tractor with Hatz-Diesel engine (single cylinder, 12 hp) shown at the Sinsheim museum.

I never recognized that! Amazing!
I worked exactly in that street! (Josephinenstraße). Nr.29 the abandoned little factory/garage building existed since last year, but alas it's replaced by a new building now..

@Grob: would you mind to mail the original scan?

I wonder, if Eicker really did the conversions by himself, or if he was just selling these under his own name. In 1949 he was the general Western and Southern Germany distributor for Jeeps converted by NAM (Niedersächsisches Auto- und Motoren-Instandsetzungswerk Janssen & Mikolajczyk, soon to become the better known Autowerke Salzgitter).

Well, that kind of looks like a proof that Eicker was only a NAM dealer...

Thank you.
