What's this? I have a make and model name but other than that, nothing... A point if you know what it is, a bonus point if you can provide some details

Looks as if it may be Panhard-based - definitely a French background!

barrett · « **Reply #3 on:** October 02, 2017, 10:02:17 AM »

I don't believe it is Panhard-based, or French (despite the location)

Lancia Aprilia second series base;...by Nardi?

barrett · « **Reply #5 on:** October 03, 2017, 04:17:25 AM »

Could be based on a Lancia, but it's not Nardi or anyone so well-known

It has a Morris Minor grille. So, is it based on an Innocenti?

barrett · « **Reply #7 on:** October 05, 2017, 04:02:48 PM »

I doubt it

Is the car from Italy?

barrett · « **Reply #9 on:** October 09, 2017, 04:10:42 AM »

I only know the name, but the name does not suggest Italian origin

Is it an European make, not French or Italian, but possibly with an Italian / Lancia chassis ?

barrett · « **Reply #11 on:** October 09, 2017, 06:53:21 AM »

I only know the name, not what engine or chassis it uses. It has professional-looking badges, but it is not a make I have ever heard of before and I can find no mention of this car anywhere I have looked. I would guess it's a one-off but built by somebody fairly talented and possibly with an eye to making further examples.

Could it be German ?

barrett · « **Reply #13 on:** October 10, 2017, 05:35:14 AM »

I think it could

mekubb · « **Reply #14 on:** October 10, 2017, 08:34:40 AM »

Do you know the base car or do you just have a (German) name ?

barrett · « **Reply #15 on:** October 10, 2017, 10:55:25 AM »

Just the name, I don't know anything else

barrett · « **Reply #16 on:** October 25, 2017, 03:29:49 PM »

Professionals

barrett · « **Reply #17 on:** May 25, 2018, 05:35:08 AM »

A clue: the name of the make is the name of a German town, in the northeast of the country

Brunswick?
(And I know that's an Anglicised version of Braunschweig...)

barrett · « **Reply #19 on:** May 25, 2018, 06:12:45 AM »

No, far west of Braunschweig

How does this fit together?

barrett · « **Reply #21 on:** May 25, 2018, 06:48:53 AM »

Ha! Sorry, the town is in the northWEST of Germany. I'm just not paying attention, as usual...

Wendax · « **Reply #22 on:** May 25, 2018, 07:09:59 AM »

Oldenburg?

barrett · « **Reply #23 on:** May 25, 2018, 07:24:22 AM »

actually quite a bit South of Oldenburg, and more to the West

Wendax · « **Reply #24 on:** May 25, 2018, 07:32:43 AM »

Münster?
