Heylandt Rocket Car

Too late! I'll add some details and pictures tonight.

It is the 1931 Heylandt rocket car. At the steering wheel you can see its builder Alfons Pietsch, sitting next to him is Walter Riedel. Leaning against the car is Paul Heylandt. The rocket car was built on a NAG Typ D6 chassis. The car was nicknamed Höllenhund (hound of hell).

Wendax gets a point for providing the complete answer.

Ok, but sometimes you have no time to post all you have or simply you are not home...I was pretty sure that posting the name of the car, plus the year was enough if not for a point, at least for a lock.
Anyway, it's your call after all...

Right you are Paul! O tempora o mores...

Thank you for your support...
I remember when we had a 'discussion': I kept saying that this was just a game and you were not so happy about.
Now I can say that I was wrong and I understand better what you meant.
It is a game, but sometimes you put time, energy, resources in it, making it a little more than 'just a game'.
In our situation, when you score a point in 1 week (if you are lucky), to see your efforts vanished because you typed (in a hurry) just all you remembered of the puzzle car but not the nickname of it, and see that you do not get the cigar because another puzzler, admitting it was too late, had the time to fill in more info it's frustrating.
I must confess I was sure that sixtee5cuda didn't see my reply.
Wendax, you did what we all do...add some more info on a puzzle you thought it was solved and of course you do not need any help to score. You did nothing against any rule...(you could have shared your opinion about this 'gift' but that's a small thing IMHO) and nor did the puzzler.
...that's why this is just an useless, meaningless post of a frustrated Pro puzzler...that would not feel better if he would get a point because of that.

[Wendax]

As you assumed it was not my intention to snatch that point at all. My post was just what I said: an additional information sourced from a very nice book about German rocket cars of the late 1920s I had the pleasure to find some months ago. In fact I didn't even realize that your answer might be considered incomplete, I just copied and posted a prefabricated answer that evening. Sorry, if my post created bad feelings. Sixtee5cuda, feel free to do with that point whatever you want.

[Paul Jaray]

There was not the slightest doubt about it in my mind.
I have a folder with more pics and articles about but what I missed was time and your post was in the best spirit of this place: share info and pics about obscure cars.
Sixtee5cuda asked for "the year, make, and model of this old car" and my reply (Heylandt Rocket Car) arrived 2 minutes later (relying on my memory only) and was missing at least of the year (that I added with my pic '1931 Berlin Rocket Car').
As you can see here http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=12883.msg124935#msg124935, car n.16 was already ID and known as 'Höllenhund' in my group puzzle as well as it is in my archive.
I thought He could have cut me some slack but, again, there are no rules about and anyone can play as he pleases.
No bad feelings about, the best of Autopuzzles is the happy and jolly vibrations you get from all its members and I won't be the one who'll ruin it... it just leaves a bad taste.
