Austro Daimler Katschberg-Schlepper conversion
« on: December 08, 2010, 04:35:59 PM »
Autopuzzler, here´s one vehicle I want more information about:

I´ve bought a pile of vintage original car photos at a flea market in Austria this autumn.
imum to show you all the details.

It shows the words "Katrschberg-Schlepper" on its rear pickup side.
This means it was a towing vehicle at the Katschberg mountain region of Austria around 1940 (as the Opel behind it clearly indicates.

Can anyone identify the towing vehicle and prove it?

Maybe a very easy point, but I´ve got to admit that my knowledge of austrian pre war cars (I think it might be austrian...) is very scarce.

That looks very likely. I´ll have to check it. If you´ve really convinced me I´ll give you the point.

Maybe it´s a converted Austro Daimler ADV (1924-1927).

But generally I think you´ve made it.

So this is your point!
