Title: Solved: Wendax 988 - Ernst Auwärter brochure
Post by: Wendax on August 24, 2013, 02:27:01 AM
I don't think that this bus was ever built, but it was on the cover of a coachbuilder's brochure.

For one point, please respond and identify the coachbuilder.

The taillights and wheels look like they could be from a Taunus P1 (12M or 15M), is it German?

From an obscure coachbuilder ?

Auwarter?

As there were two bus manufacturers using the Auwärter name, please specify by adding the first name. Locked for you.

I suppose it was the same coachbuilder who made the VW typ2 Carlux; if I'm not wrong his complete name was Gottlob Auwarter karosserie.

Correct, the similarity to the Carlux buses really was the key to the solution. Well done!
