Büssing 4000 T, coachbuilder was Staufen.

Only Büssing is correct

Is it at all a german coachbuilder?
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 16, 2021, 09:01:04 AM
Yes

If I understand you correctly, the Vehicle type is not correct. For furniture transport are often used omnibus chassis and the ground clearance looks like such a version. So might be a 5000 TU (1949-1951) or a TU (1951-1952) with a body by Lamperhoff.
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 16, 2021, 03:21:36 PM
Neither 5000TU nor Lamperhoff is correct
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 16, 2021, 05:36:01 PM
Also no TU?
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 17, 2021, 04:52:42 AM
Yes

Since I am missing the picture I must guess a bitt.The radiator grille looks more like 6000 T than 5000 T. So, it might be the
6 t-version. And on the occasion here the next furniture coachbuilder: Schmitz.

Sorry, it is not an 6000 T, not 5000 T, and not from Schmitz....
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 17, 2021, 05:28:04 PM
It's a Mercedes with fake radiator grille...
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 17, 2021, 05:37:37 PM
But seriously: I am still sure, that is a coach-chassis. Then only 4500 T and TU 5 remain.
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 18, 2021, 03:17:25 AM
It is a 4500 T(.)?

(.) = additional letter
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 18, 2021, 05:29:16 AM
That leaves only the 4500 TU. But none of my sources know this version.
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 18, 2021, 06:55:12 AM
Not 4500 TU
But I agree with you. Me too, never heard about the requested nomenclature before, stated by the owner of the truck
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 18, 2021, 07:27:27 AM
4500 TT from the Isle of Man.
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 18, 2021, 07:56:00 AM
Earlier in the alphabet than T
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 18, 2021, 08:39:00 AM
TL (liegend)?
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on February 18, 2021, 09:24:46 AM
I just found a 4000 TS with body by Vetter. "S" meanes Switzerland, 2,25 m wide, so called "Schweitzer Breite" (Schweitzer width).
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 19, 2021, 04:09:56 PM
Not L, not S, not 4000, not Vetter

4500 TE? Coachbuilder from the south of Germany?
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on February 25, 2021, 05:51:27 PM
4500T(.), but not "E". I feel bad in European geography, but, I think, the coachbuilder is from the south of Germany
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: sichel on March 05, 2021, 03:14:04 PM
4500 TA, built by E. Auwärter.
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on March 05, 2021, 04:34:13 PM
Not 4500TA but 4500T(.) and not Auwärter...

What's on with 4500 TB and Gaubschat?
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on March 05, 2021, 05:47:41 PM
4500 T(.), but not B and not Gaubschat
Title: Re: FW #109

Büssing 4500 TP, body by Kässbohrer.
Title: Re: FW #109
Post by: fromwien on March 06, 2021, 05:20:45 AM
4500 T(.), but not P and not Kässbohrer

Sorry, mixed up this puzzle with another one! LOCKED for 'sichel'.
It is a Büssing 4500 T?, bodywork by Karosseriewerke Eislingen. Please find the only missing character... And, sorry please, for my unwariness from the beginning...

Post by: Wendax on May 03, 2021, 07:55:58 AM
You should move the puzzle to expert level  as sichel can't reply to rookie puzzles anymore.
Title: Re: LOCKED for 'sichel': FW #109
Post by: fromwien on May 03, 2021, 09:24:24 AM
Thank you 'Wendax'....
I see, I am really far from an 'Professional'....
Title: Re: LOCKED for 'sichel': FW #109
Post by: sichel on May 03, 2021, 03:29:10 PM
@fromwien: So there seems to be no source, neither online nor in writing. So I have to march through the alphabet. I'll start with TC.

Back to the beginning: I found the note. It is a 4500 TM from 1955. His last job seems to have been racing transporter
Title: Re: LOCKED for 'sichel': FW #109
Post by: fromwien on May 03, 2021, 05:15:50 PM
Exactly that! Your first point a as an 'Expert'! And sorry for all efforts you had, due to my carelessness....

Doesn't matter. What doesn't kill us makes us tougher.
