No (and neither a Kroboth...).

That ´s the German Recklinghausen single seat,claimed as the lowest car in the world ..(in that days,,,)

[Ray B.]

yes!
It's all the information I have, so if other puzzlers feel like adding anything, they're welcome.

What the hell....!

Does anybody know more about this unique mini-car?

[Allemano]

I don't know why, but I doubt that it actually was called "Recklinghausen". I guess it's probably a translation error. Maybe it was built in or near Recklinghausen and the builder's name has been forgotten over the years.. Might be one of the countless 'Eigenbauten' of that era.

[grobmotorix]

I´m quite sure you´re right...

Puzzle picture restored.

[Wendax]

I found this picture for sale, stating the car was called "Wiesel" (weasel).

[grobmotorix]

A good find!

Appeared recently on Facebook too

And a 1950 magazine snippet also tells us about the Wiesel from Recklinghausen. I'll change the title.
