I say with a smirk, Birk?

Thanks for bearing with me on this. I'm very interested to know the history.

So eventually you got there my friend :)

"In Bregenz-Kennelbach-Vorarlberg baut die Karosseriefabrik Th. Anwander's Söhne diesen 1-ton-Kleinlastwagen auf dem Jeep-Chassis"

Th. Anwander's Sons made this 1-ton small truck on the basis of a Jeep in Bregenz-Kennelbach-Vorarlberg in 1947.

Today the Anwander family is an Opel dealer.

Two points for you!

Wow, THAT was easy.  ::) haha!

Thanks for your added info. I find this truck interesting.
I'm surprised it's a 1-ton!
Is there a source I could check out to learn a little more about these?

I found this car in an old issue of Austro Motor. Maybe you'd contact the current Anwander company and see if they got any photos and info!

Yes, I was thinking of doing just that as I have searched and searched on the web and can't find a single word or pic anywhere!

Should it not be "Anwanders" instead of "Anwander's"?
