Solved: Wendax 859 - A Frech-Hoch body on a Fiat (?) chassis
« on: April 03, 2013, 02:21:14 AM »
I don't know the chassis used.

For one point, please respond and name the coachbuilder responsible for this bodywork.

The car looks like a Fiat 501, is the coachbuilder Italian?

It might well be a Fiat 501, but the coachbuilder is not Italian.

I realise that the chassis is unknown, but I have a feeling it's a very late 1919-20 FIAT Tipo 2, but I just can't find any photos to confirm it.
