Gerczak Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) I have never seen one of these before so I thought someone might be able to comment on it. The exterior looks good but I don't know anything about Austrian Autos. I really like the 4 door and I think that is one of the most basic dashboards I have ever seen. Is $15K a good value or is this an example of rarity does not translate in value? Not mine. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/616014780717994 Edited October 5, 2023 by Gerczak (see edit history) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f.f.jones Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Actually, the correct spelling is STEYR Steyr was an Austrian automotive brand, established in 1915 as a branch of the Österreichische Waffenfabriks-Gesellschaft (ÖWG) weapon manufacturing company. Renamed Steyr-Werke AG in 1926 and merged with Austro-Daimler and Puch into Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG, it continued manufacturing Steyr automobiles until 1959. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillOutThere Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Surely those are Model A Ford taillight "heads" currently on the car. And just as surely, had I been the restorer finding originals missing, I also would have chosen the Ford units! Cute as can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Shifter Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) 1938 Styer 200 $15,000 Listed 4 days ago in Hubertus, WI Seller's description: This car was built in Austria during WWII. I can only find pictures of 1 other car known to exist. From 1936 to 1940 only 5,040 cars were built. So this is an extremely ware car knowing metal was in short supply and needed for the war most car did not survive.It is a running driving car and from what I can see the car is original. It was repainted and the interior was replaced 20-30 years age. The under-side looks like undercoating was sprayed on it but don’t know if that was stock or now. The radiator is original and holds water. There are some Issues, oil leaks, Speedometer, Parking light, dome lights, side flip up markers and other little things. (Lots of pictures and info on google - mostly in German(?). Edited October 5, 2023 by Twisted Shifter (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Zodrow Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 In reply to StillOutThere I have 3 pictures of the taillights. Do you still believe the taillights are Model A? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthcranbrook Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Although I would bet I could not fit behind the wheel I do like its looks. I like how the generator is half as long as the engine. I wonder how many ccs it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerczak Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 HarryLime, Good history lesson. Was this car made before or after the Anschluss? March 12th was apparently the date in 1938. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
