Apparently "Dalnik" refers to the all the vehicles of this type, i.e. motorcycles but with an all-enveloping body in which the rider sat like in a car.
So it may well be that Jan Anderle referred to this as his Dalnik, but whether he meant that as its name or describing what it was I don't know.
Dalniks had their heyday in Eastern Europe in the 1950s/60s.

Jan Anderle, Stephen Polak, Adolf Gregor, Jiřího Štěničky and Karel Horak built some of the 'Dalniks' that are in my archive, from 30s to late 70s.
