Please identify this truck for a point.

Experts?

[pnegyesi]

Professionals?

[Wendax]

Bergmann?

[Bill Murray]

I have spent way too much time on this puzzle without a concrete answer.

I think Wendax may be on the right track but the resolution of the photo does not indicate a battery powered vehicle which I believe was a Bergmann exclusive.

If it helps Wendax, I do believe this is a Reichspost vehicle, possibly postwar and possibly in the service of East Germany.

I will continue to search, but not much luck so far.

[Wendax]

Partly

[Wendax]

German truck, electrified somewhere else?

[pnegyesi]

Related to a German electric truck

[targhediferro]

Related to a Bleichert?

[pnegyesi]

yes. I am giving 24 hours to come up with the manufacturer. So it is locked

A very interesting page...

[targhediferro]

A very interesting page, indeed.
I had to try French Bleichert, Swiss Bleichert, Austrian Bleichert....but then I tried Magyar Bleichert and it came out.
I understand it is a Raba Bleichert electric truck, built for Magyar Post and used since the end of Forties to early Sixties.

[pnegyesi]

quite so

Thanks for the compliments

Good job, Fabrizio.

I too had found the answer but you were already in position.

And, of course, from a most, most reliable source.
