Layden B Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Wow, electric lights and demountable rims. Pretty unusual to see those as early as 1910 or are they retro fitted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Casper Friedrich Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Mercedes pre-WWI, because it's chain-driven. You can clearly see the box for the chain in front of the rear fender. The shaft driven six-cylinder SOHC 28/95 ps (1913-24) had an almost similar radiator. But it was also a little bit larger. By the way, in the magazine Signalhornet 5/1982 there was a old photo of a chain-driven 22/50 ps, but it had a flat radiator and no tulip body despite beeing made in 1914. The licence number was P 328!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintman Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Hi Laden,From the attached pictures it does seems that electrics were part of the 1910 fixtures. See below.RegardsVintman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
