Not quite finished when the picture was taken, but good enough for a puzzle.

For one point, please respond and identify this truck.

It looks to me to be a DAF from around 1950-1953 with several of the grille bars not installed yet.

There is a certain connection, but in an indirect way.

Yes, exactly. Before I found this picture, I hadn't read of a Kämper truck. I just knew them as engine suppliers, as they did for Auwärter's Neoplan buses in the beginning.

Kämper also supplied an engine for the Orion Lkw 6-Tonnen prototype.
