... and advertising cars.

Eight cars adorned with different gimmicks, or in form of gizmos. What they advertise is usually obvious. But what I am interested in is what chassis or underpinnings are hidden under. Give us the make, possibly model and year.
Each picture is worth one point, except the last two, for which I have no information: those, if identified with documented evidence, will be worth two.

Productmobile #1

1921 Dodge - 75america

Productmobile #2

1929 Studebaker - Joao

Productmobile #3

1950 Dodge One Ton truck - Impishgrin

Productmobile #4

1932 White - 75america

Productmobile #5

Daimler Worthington - guido66

Productmobile #6

1936 Studebaker Dictator - 75america

Productmobile #7

Opel, Buick or Packard - Allemano

Productmobile #8

Brennabor 1 ton chassis - pnegyesi (2 pts)

Productmobile #4, although it isn't quite readable, is a BromoSeltzer advertising truck.

I hope it wasn't too hard guessing this, Paul.

I expect better from you.

Dodge is correct, 1952 is not the year I have.
So, what kind of Dodge, and what year (you're close). Locked for you until your next answer.

I'm not an expert in American cars and I can only find that it was based on a 'Studebaker Coupé'. If I'm correct, in 1936 Studebaker only had the 'Dictator' and 'President' in their line-up...but both of them were available with a coupé body...

Ray B. · « **Reply #17 on:** August 12, 2009, 11:47:12 AM »

It's said "possibly model and year". My source (which is not on the internet) gives the model. I'd like you to find it, but it's not mandatory. The difference between both will be the wheelbase, of course.

Also for this one, I cant find more information.
This model of the wienermobile was made in the period 1950-1953. This one looks a little bit older than the better known 1952 one, so I guess 1951...

Ray B. · « **Reply #19 on:** August 12, 2009, 12:55:59 PM »

I won't be a nitpicker regarding the year, but what kind of Dodge chassis? It is on the internet.
Still locked for 75america.

#8 is styled (if you can call it styling) like a Hanomag Kommisbrot. So is it a Hanomag?

Ray B. · « **Reply #21 on:** August 12, 2009, 05:07:03 PM »

If you read the first post, you'll see that I don't know. But if it was one, it would be a giant Kommisbrot.

Numer #2 It´s a 1928 Studebaker?

Ray B. · « **Reply #23 on:** August 14, 2009, 05:01:19 PM »

Good enough! (1929)
