We have established that this vehicle was not produced in the postwar period.  Was this vehicle produced during the war, or was it produced in the prewar period?
I had a second look, it is prewar.

I don't think this is correct, but it is the last "G" name I have been able to find (so far).  Galpe?

It was meant to be a hint.  :)

It is an Österreichischer Saurer truck with Grunert Holzgas generator, built for Hirtenberger Patronenfabrik.

Two Black Hole points for you.
