does this company still exists?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 06:52:30 AM

No

was it built in a city with more than 100,000 inhabitants in the 1960s?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 07:46:37 AM

I don't have a year for it, and the city was smaller.

pnegyesi · June 21, 2015, 10:10:54 AM

the question related to how many inhabitants lived there in the 1960s. I understand you know very little about the car

But it was built in a small city, right? So let's try to ID the city. Is the city renowned for any of its sights?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 12:28:44 PM

A small city, rather known for its surroundings than for the city itself.

is it near some hills?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 12:59:48 PM

Even the highest one has an elevation of less than 200 metres.

is it near a forest?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 02:03:38 PM

There are forests in Germany everywhere.

The surrounding landscape is related to forests, but known for the absence of them, mainly. (I hope this will puzzle you a bit.)

pnegyesi · June 21, 2015, 02:22:21 PM

Delmenhorst?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 03:11:11 PM

No, even smaller

pnegyesi · June 21, 2015, 04:23:16 PM

built in Lingen?

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 04:25:56 PM

No, a city with less inhabitants

Finally found it! It is a one-off built for an officer (British?) by the garage/shop Stellmacherei Wagen & Karosseriebau H.Blenck (Helmut Blenck) located in the town of Schneverdingen.

Wendax · June 21, 2015, 04:35:45 PM

Well found indeed! Two Black Hole points for you.
