Auto ID #153 FINISHED!


Recommended Posts

This week's car is a 1953-57 Lloyd LT500 and/or a 1955-61 Lloyd LT600 (mechanical changes, but pretty much identical visually).

So much for Chrysler having invented the minivan! :lol:

Bugger. I didn't have time to look for it til this AM. First thought it was a DKW Schnellaster (built from '49 and another claimant to the "first minivan" title). Finally found a pic of a '53 Lloyd woody sitting next to a DKW van in a European museum.

I think the little Lloyd may have drawn heavily on the Schnellaster for inspiration...

This was quite easy actually. That Trabant front end that is seen in the picture and the fact that this car had steering wheel on left side made me think it's German... And after figuring that out, I found it really easily.
