Looking at the spectators right at the trackside, is the car racing in Italy?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #11 on:** March 05, 2014, 12:33:01 PM »

No, sometimes the sun also shines in Germany, too...

Does this car have a name like the We-Fi or is it simply something like Josef Kulzer's Fiat Special, Spezial or Eigenbau ?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #21 on:** March 07, 2014, 11:36:46 AM »

It IS Josef Kulzer's Fiat Spezial!

VEEEEEEERY GOOD!!

And it still exists!

Here are some details:
built in 1940, 4 Zyl., 1089 ccm, 50 PS

Here´s a big picture showing it in front of the Petermax Müller VW at the Schanz race at Ingolstadt.
He won this race that took place at the 15th of August 1949.

Looking at the rather scanty records on the web, Josef Kulzer was reasonably successful in the immediate postwar years.
