Finally we got there and so this is my last post on this subject. The edition was sold out within few days (Huh!!!), although I was a quite a bit worried about the high price (164 €)!
The promotional model wasn't built by myself. That would be useless, as I have usually ten or more years to finish a project  ::)

Congrats, Peter! Hope you'll get some refund for the work involved!
I'll make it. If I have to fly the five feet like a birdie.
I'll fly it. I'll make it.

Good work, Peter. It must be a good feeling when all that work meets with interest from others.

Wow, that is so funky! What is the cylindrical object under the frame?

Thanks, Ray!
The cylindrical object is a rope winch. To me this is a highly interesting vehicle, all the more since there you can/could almost nothing find about it in the archives. But... I was able to get my hands on the sole and original user manual with some pictures and sectional drawings.  ::)

BTW "Dürkopp" was a pre- and post-war manufacturer of sewing machines. May be of coincidence or not, the transmission housing looks a lot like a sewing machine...



Cheers, Peter
