Giorgetto Guigiaro     - No

I know Bertone did quite a lot of work for Skoda. So could it be his design for the Favorit?

Title: Re: MS#6
Post by: qwaszx on September 19, 2011, 03:10:41 PM

Don't think so. Bertone was in his cardboard period then (Favorit, Citroen BX)...

In this design did not participate in the Italian designers.

Title: Re: MS#6
Post by: wingroad on September 20, 2011, 02:45:57 PM

So Skoda did it themselves then.

Post by: milos62 on September 21, 2011, 02:06:42 AM

Yes. The designer of this desing was a Czech.

Skoda S 720/S 740, 1968, 4-door-saloon prototype.

Title: Re: MS#6
Post by: milos62 on September 24, 2011, 07:46:17 AM

Yes, it's one of those vehicles - but which?. I asked a designer but the name or numerical designation of a factory prototype. (Czech nationality was a designer, not his surname).  :doh:

Sorry, I thought your question was "What is it?" and not "Who designed it?"

Title: Re: MS#6
Post by: milos62 on September 24, 2011, 02:12:21 PM

OK. While not guessed or type of Skoda. I wanted to make, type and designation, or who suggested it. What is it? The answer - the car.

Prototype Skoda S720 by Ital Design ?

Title: Re: MS#6
Post by: milos62 on September 28, 2011, 11:48:29 AM

It's the same car as your image. Is not it a pity to 720 ID (Italian Desing). I enclose a photo of this car. In my puzzle is the forerunner of this prototype. As I wrote from a Czech designer.

Puzzling. Thus Car was developer witheet Wartburg from Eisenach. Initial design by senior Frantisek Kardaus?

Title: Re: MS#6
Post by: milos62 on October 10, 2011, 02:59:40 AM

It is not a designer Fr. Kardaus. The first co-Ml. Boleslav and the Zwickau in 1967, was the project Trabant P 603 (9 cars were made - 6 engine Skoda 1000 MB, 2 with a Wankel engine and the engine Wartburg.). The second part of the cooperation started in 1970 and produced models with - Š 750/760. In the quest to the Š-720??, the designer who worked on it almost like an Italian Desing, in 1968 - the year before the ID.

By the way did they buy the Wankel engines at NSU/Comotor or did they make the tools themselves while paying license fees to NSU and Felix Wankel? I also wondered how Lada did that: extremely costly since everything differs from regular piston engine...
