I don't think that the chassis is Wartburg, but the body may contain some Wartburg parts.

I don't have a year, but I'd say you should be right, perhaps from the late 50s.

No

looks to me like a Russian base

Title: Re: Wendax 2733
Post by: Wendax on December 11, 2018, 05:30:49 PM

Might be, but I rather think of another base

Should not have revealed the source of the Fiat Glaser picture :)

Yes, any idea about the base car? (The point is yours anyway)

Title: Re: Wendax 2733
Post by: pnegyesi on December 18, 2018, 02:59:04 PM

Maybe another Fiat, but I don't have proof

Post by: Wendax on December 19, 2018, 02:47:49 AM

Well, as I don't know either, I will tell you my guess. As it was built as a command car for the Nationale Volksarmee, I think it might have been a rebodied IFA P2M.
