Solved: Wendax 177 - Auto-Miesse 6x6

If the streets had no curves, this would be a clever way to place three axles.

For one point, please respond and identify this truck and its year of appearance.

It still is, depending if the axles are steered or not.

Let's say an Auto-Miesse from 1939 for the heavy transport.

Yes, it is a Miesse from Belgium. I have got a slightly different year, so I could tell you that it is a near miss, and I lock it for you, and your next guess would be 1938, and I agree. To cut this short, here's your point.  ;)

My source was the transportmuseum site, which calls it Auto-Miesse and has it as 1939.  Thanks, anyway.

In 1939, the company name "Automobiles Miesse et Usines Bollinckx Societe Anonyme" was shortened to Auto-Miesse. When I look at the plate at the front bumper, it seems one can read "Auto Miesse S.A.". So probably you are right.. I'll change the headline, thanks.
