Title: Solved: Wendax 1592 - Piccard-Pictet by Otto Heimburger
Post by: Wendax on May 13, 2015, 02:36:43 AM
It gets more angular, the higher you look.

For one point, please respond and identify this car and its coachbuilder.

Piccard-Pictet, with a German body?

It is a Piccard-Pictet, but not with a German body.

Locked for Craig Gillingham.

Swiss body? would be the next obvious choice.

I thought I was on a winner then. It's a well known Swiss coachbuilder?
Title: Re: Wendax 1592
Post by: Wendax on May 27, 2015, 05:41:52 AM
Not one of the best known, but not obscure either, although it hasn't been mentioned on AP before  :o

This is going to take a bit of research.

I'll try Carrosseriewerke Bern?

No

Is there a particular styling feature that is indicative of the particular coachbuilder? Something like the shape of the guards, door shape, roof line, etc?
Title: Re: Wendax 1592
Post by: Wendax on May 27, 2015, 07:17:13 AM
Not that I know of
Title: Re: Wendax 1592
Post by: Craig Gillingham on May 27, 2015, 07:22:14 AM
In that case, I think I'll bow out. You could unlock this, as I'd just be taking random guesses, and there are a lot of Swiss coachbuilders to go through.
