I dunno. It is incredibly utilitarian. It looks like it was MADE to carry 4X8 sheets of building materials on the roof. And I bet you never have to worry about the interior getting dirty.  Looks like the PERFECT vehicle - if you like fork lifts and such.   :P

Yes, this had a kind of t-profile spaceframe with thin metalshield fixed upon. Absolutely cheap bullshit.

I´m not proud to admit, that this one was built in Germany...  :-\

Looks like the A.W.S. Shopper Piccolo with Goggomobil mechanicals. 1400 made between 1971 and 1974. I think they were supplied as flat packs.

JR did this, too!!

Yes it is the most infamous german car besides the trabant, the AWS Shopper, built in Berlin with Goggomobil components and a rather sophisticated body... :yuck:

Two more body styles, which existed as prototypes:
- the Jagdwagen (second from right on the upper photo)
- the Cabriolet
