Djetset · « **Reply #5 on:** October 02, 2010, 07:37:22 AM »

Getting closer, but not the name I have for this one.

staulan · « **Reply #6 on:** October 03, 2010, 05:37:09 PM »

I don't know; the names I could find are: Glas/BMW Europa-Jeep (Rene Pohl-amphicars.com), Glas/BMW-Man (multiboard.com), Glas Schwimmwagen (glasclub.de) and "LKW 0,5 t gl schwimm (national)" Glas (bwb.de). Is it any good?

No, none of those.

It's not a Laverda is it?

Djetset · « **Reply #12 on:** October 12, 2010, 07:14:04 AM »

Afraid not!

Carnut · « **Reply #13 on:** October 12, 2010, 06:25:15 PM »

Is it VW-powered?

Djetset · « **Reply #14 on:** October 13, 2010, 08:04:07 AM »

Sorry, but I'm not at home so currently not 100% sure what the mechanical base is, but suspect that it's not VW.

Carnut · « **Reply #15 on:** October 13, 2010, 08:05:02 AM »

If it's not then is it NSU?

Djetset · « **Reply #16 on:** November 08, 2010, 03:19:38 PM »

Now at home, but still not 100% certain as to what the engine is. Suspect it's something bigger than an NSU motor though.

Any ideas as to what this might be called though?

OK, I take the hint, so moving on...

That's the amphibuos vehicle by MBB (Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm) called Euro-Jeep from 1970/72, equipped with a 4 cyl. 95 HP BMW engine.
The whole project started life in the early 1960s as a Glas/MAN development.

I could see that you were itching to get this one.

Well done, as it is indeed the MBB Schwimmwagen. You wouldn't know what engine it used would you, as I don't!

I've edited my last post.

Ah, danke schon
