Hänni? It is difficult to find pictures of the products from the various coachbuilders. So I sort on the basis of descriptions of the different coachbuilders. That makes it a bit exhausting for both of us.

That's the way it goes and to make it more difficult the car is not mentioned in a well known coachbuilding site.

Thank You for the point. During the search, I learned why this kind of steel-spoked wheels are called "artillery wheels".
