Title: Solved TGF-79: Framo Aerodynamic Tandem 1935, Rasmussen, Görke
Post by: targhediferro on March 19, 2013, 03:25:26 PM
To all rookies: I decided to leave my quiz in your section for three days only.  Then, if nobody will try to guess and show to walk on the right path, I'll move them to Experts.

I'd like to know what car this chassis belongs, and who are the men on board. All for a point.

The picture is mirrored!

Is it an Aero Minor chassis?

The picture is mirrored..Yes!...But not an Aero Minor.

Those two must be Hans Rasmussen and his father Jörgen Skafte Rasmussen. The chassis belongs to the second Framo tandem-seater prototype built by Hans Rasmussen and Fritz Görke:

That's one...I had those pictures and I would have posted them when the correct answer would have arrived. Thank you for doing the job for me.  Another point for you.

I didn't say anything because I thought they looked like they were in the middle!  i.e. the reversing didn't seem to make any difference (although why was it done?!)

Sorry, I reversed the picture just to avoid that it could be found with GSI, and because it's a car neither RHD nor LHD. I apologize if someone had a damage from that.

No, as I said, I don't think it really mattered with this car.  Only if you knew the photo (as Wendax must have done) would anyone ever know it was reversed!

I didn't know the photo. I just wondered about the odd lefthand revolver gearshift, and then I noticed that the jackets were buttoned the wrong way around and that the handkerchief stuck out at the wrong side.

Yes.
We actually had a puzzle of this car's chassis last year so I'll merge them.
Although Framo's collaborator was named as Fritz Goritz on at least one website I believe it should actually be Fritz Görke..
