Vintman Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Hi,The multinational side of the SVVS Help Page has provided two answers that this car is a Stoewer from Germany. “The car looks indeed like a Stoewer - the mansard type of bonnet seems typical. Picture in 'Autos in Deutschland' has a similar car titled: "Long-distance voyage Stettin – Paris – Stettin 1903. Bernhard Stoewer on his way with a 40 hp Stoewer motor car.” Both disagree with the book photo saying it is probably a 20HP not 40PS. Our picture is somewhat remarkable for being a Rear-entrance Tonneau in spite of – it would appear - not being chain driven. “In fact the Tonneau fulfils exactly the original meaning of a rear Tonneau (barrel) bodywork by having seats in the front corners; all around the barrel, as it were. The letter P in the registration means a fairly large part of the Swedish west coast north of Gothenburg with Älvsborg as its more or less centre.”Kind RegardsVintman (UK)www.svvs.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
