"Standard" is a horrible name to google, "Gutbrod" would have been better.

I see.
I just tried Googling for "Standard Lieferwagen", "Standard H 204", "Standard Lieferwagen H 204", "Standard Vierrad-Eil-Lieferwagen", same plus "H 204" then all of them with and without "1936" and got.... nothing at all.

I think to get a result on this vehicle you need to be in Germany; no wonder I couldn't solve it.
I'll try using Gutbrod as you suggest, although I did try that with many different additions whilst the puzzle was locked for me, again without success of course..  I think this one needed books, and there really aren't many books in UK with much on these vehicles..

But you had said it was a Standard of course...

Don't really. You're right about saying it's easier to search this in German but it's not impossible in English either. Once you have the Gutbrod part, both Gutbrod AND Standard give quick results of special interest pages. On Google.de it pops up first.

I just tried your suggestion and it was slightly more successful, but still only produced 2 results a long way down.  At least one of them was a good one - the Gutbrod-Standard.de forum which I'd never been offered before!

I also went via Google.de but got identical results..

Impossible to solve? I don't think so.

For one point, please respond and identify this little van.

A Mercedes Benz, perhaps, with the 1930s backbone chassis and side-valve engine?

So the engine is in the rear, but it's not a conventional piston engine ?

Is this retro-look truck built on an NSU Prinz chassis?
