One man's dream of a sports special.
. . is this man's nightmare. >:(
Chacun à son goût ;)
Off to the Black Hole
South American?
No
Is Fiat based?
No, the look might tell you the base
Mercedes front, Fiat/Alfa wheels, VW fender light. I guess Mercedes based
Yes, based on a Mercedes-Benz, but which one?
170V?
no
Strich Achter?
no, older
Ponton?
no, older
170 S then?
no, older
500 SSK?
I'm afraid there never was such a thing as a 500 SSK, but it's neither based on a SSK nor a 500 K.
W21?
No, a bit older
W15?
Not W15
W11?
Not W11, but you are very close
W37?
No, not a van
It must be a W10 then?
Sorry, no. The base car is like the W11, but with a smaller engine. And it is called ...
W02?
Yes, the puzzle car is based on a 1931 Mercedes-Benz 8/38 PS Typ Stuttgart 200 (W02).
Unfortunately, that won't help you much to find the name of it. :(
A big hint: the name consists of two five-letter words, of which the first one is probably the builder's Christian name, the second word is quite generic.
Peter Sport ?
Sport is correct, Peter isn't.
Is the first name German ?
Yes, very much. ;D
Fritz ?
Yes, as easy as that. It is called Fritz Sport. I'll add some more pictures tonight.
One point for you for finding the name, and one for guido66 for finding the base car.
The pictures:
The car was built in 1999/2000 by Fritz Koch from Zarpen. The engine was taken from a 280 SE (W108).
