Close enough to grant you a single-guess lock. It has something to do with carpets.

Yes, a mobile carpet beating machine.

There were some more around in the 1950s, before everyone had a vacuum cleaner.

What a wonderful  weird puzzle
I specially loved the bonus picture of the Dutch tapijtenklopdienst.
Because it has a six numbers telephone number it is probably in one of the 4 big cities of The Netherlands.

What a clever idea!  8) 8)

By the way, the parked Taunus seems to have a broken rear axle, even Ford wouldn't stoop to swing axles!  ;D ;D
