E.H. von Lienen?  The only four I have found are Kässbohrer, FAKA, Lamperhoff, and Lienen.

Could it be the relatively near-to-Brandt-in-Hagen company of Ludewig in Essen, who later built bus bodies on Henschel chassis? (There are a few more coachbuilders in this region, am I getting close?)

It's not Ludewig, but you're close. North Rhine-Westphalia is the right region.

Yes, then I'll lock so you can look for the coachbuilder.

Hey marmer, here is your point! You've really earned it!  :applause:
There are not many sources that depict this particular version. There were only eleven examples in total: eight bus chassis (on one of which the "Brandt truck" was built) and three tractor units. The two coupled, transversely mounted 95 hp engines could probably not be reliably synchronised. I attach a picture with a view of the left engine.

Thank you for this picture, I didn't know him yet. But that is Kässbohrer and not Spermann. The shape is very similar to the Kässbhrer Bimot (I'll add a picture), but it lacks the maintenance flaps on the sides and there's one too many stars on the bonnet...My guess is Mercedes O/OP between 3500 and 6600. Judging by the tyre size, more likely 5000 or 6600, but that's a bit like reading in a crystal ball.
