It's a 1975 Dacia 1300 hearse. The conversion was done by a DDR coachbuilder, but I can't find the name of this coachbuilder.

I'm not really sure whether it really is meant to be a hearse or just a multifunctional pickup. But you are right that it is a Dacia 1300 modified in the GDR by a coachbuilder. Locked for you to have some more time to find it.

Indeed, it doesn't look like a hearse. It has more the looks of a leisure vehicle. Was the coachbuilder known for making caravans?

Was it one of the "VEB Karosseriewerke" locations?

I'm guessing that Neumann made this pick-up conversion before Dacia produced its own 1300-based pick up, if you might have any idea when this was made?

It was built in 1982.

Neumann is a Ford dealer nowadays. They still have one of these Dacias though.

Thanks, and strange as the 'official' Dacia 1302 Pick-Up had already existed by then for seven years.

But the official Dcia Pickup was probably unavailable in the GDR. I can't recall ever seeing one. Even the Dacia sedan was hard to come by.

That a very good point. I must say that Neumann's pick-up looks rather better than Dacia's own official model.
