Another one from the woods.

For one point, please respond and identify this van and the coachbuilder who built the cab.

Yes, it is. Locked for you to find the coachbuilder.

The Gutbrod Atlas usually has a cab built by Binz, but this one has not.

Open for all.

Yes, that is correct.

When the production of the Gutbrod Atlas started, the platform truck got a cab built by Vischer, while the van had a Binz body. After a few months, the platform truck got its cab from Binz also, easily identifiable by the three bars at the front and the one-piece windshield. Until the discovery of the puzzle car last year, only one surviving Vischer bodied Atlas was known. It is pictured below, together with a period Vischer pic and a Binz bodied Atlas.

The survived Vischer bodied Atlas is parked about 800m from my home. Will check out the state of restoration soon.

I love the fact that it was used as a service car for Büssing. Cool puzzle

I just came across a sales ad for the puzzle car. The restoration has progressed, but isn't finished:
