T-Wagen 1956, 580 cc, from Switzerland (in some books T-Auto, but in the prospect the name is T-wagen)

I give you one point, but I'd still like to know:

Do you know where and by whom it was built?

Why it was called "T"?

I'll award an extra point for correct answers on both questions!

Made in Thun by Henning Thorndahl, and since the initials of the city and family name of the buiider was T, it was called T-Wagen.

Apropos of nothing: as Switzerland is a multi-lingual country I am not surprised to find the two names T-Wagen (German) and T-Auto (French or Italian) to have been used.  A bit like the airline "Canadian/Canadien".

The name of the car is already solved, but there's still one famous name I'm waiting for. (which should be very easy to find now!)

I'm looking for more info on this car please - how many were built, did it ever achieve even a tiny production? Thanks!

If anyone has a scan of the brochure that they would be prepared to share with me please, that would be just fabulous, thanks again :)
