grob 2023.02.12 mystery car
« on: February 12, 2023, 06:52:42 AM »
I have no idea, what this might be.
IŽd really like to know which car had this impressive pointed radiator.

The inscription on the rear side of the photo reads:
"The Swedish Crown Prince visits an automotive volunteer company in Motala in 1916."

All my thoughts converge on Scania-Vabis

I already looked through my Scania book, but couldn't find an appropriate car.  :(

The coachwork looks like the work of Gustaf Nordberg (exaggerated spitzkühler, Brooklands-style windshield, etc.).

Can we make this puzzle available to everyone (by moving it to 'Masters') and see where it goes?
