Steyr-Fiat based?
Title: Re: PN #1728
Post by: pnegyesi on January 17, 2023, 08:04:52 AM
When this photo was taken the car had a Steyr engine. When it was built a few years earlier, it was set to receive a different engine, but it seems eventually a Steyr unit was installed.

Can it be found on the Internet?

Thank you very much for point and puzzle. About one year ago, I have got the picture with Mr. Herbert von Pichler and Mr. Hans List next the car by a friend of mine, without any further informations. I feel so happy to get such good support from you, to continue researching this car.
