Can anyone ID this car manufactuer's logo?

[blackdog~ 0]

This may be a little too offtopic but it kind of relates to military things because it is the only marking on a car which looks to me like it is German made... and that also has the flat grayish black nazi paint.

Can anyone ID this car manufacturer logo? Or a car manufacturer who uses something close to it? Or who has used it in the past?

Wikipedia sucks!

I just looked up Ferrari and there I could read that Ferrari was owned by Fiat (true) and Piero Ferrari the son of Enzo Ferrari . What a joke! The only son of Enzo Ferrari was Alfredino "Dino" Ferrari and he died as a young man. The car "Dino" with Ferrari's first V6 engine for roadgoing cars was Enzo's way to commemorate his son (Dino also worked on the engine) .

Il Cavalino Rampante!

Wikipedia is the evil incarnated in a web format! Like the web in general it makes maximum use of hyperlinks, but unlike the web in general only contains relevant and structured information.

Just yesterday, I was looking up a thing in neurobiology (relevant for work) and ended up for 45 minutes reading about the history of the Mafia.

You can "waste" an endless amount of time just reading interesting stuff. And it diverges! You read one article, and in it you find two or three interesting links. Then on each of these pages you find two or three other interesting links etc

Yeah, wikipedia has also claimed countless hours of my time too, I really need to get a life.

Even worse, the stuff gets updated and created surprisingly rapidly so I often find myself rechecking some subjects.

I second this.

Recently I watched Elizabeth (http://imdb.com/title/tt0127536/) and wanted to know more... read much about English history... in the end there was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_words_of_German_origin

On topic, please.

Could you give us more details on the car to make the search a bit easier?

Type (car/truck)

era (ww2, modern)

ect ect.

[blackdog~ 0]

Its WWII era - and it's a thing... not a car, not a truck.

It's got a square arched back with two doors and the cab is two person. It's a truck, but it's very small - maybe the size of 1 1/2 mini coopers. It's got windows in the back too if that helps, and the grille is has horizontal slats and is rounded like most cars in the 30's.

Here's a drawing - it's terrible, I know, but it should give you the basic idea of the shape:

Keep in mind it's about the size of a VW bug or around there.

Heh, looking at the drawing again... it looks like the car from "the crap mod".

It sounds like a volkswagen.. Are you 100% sure that it isn't an early VW?

[blackdog~ 0]

Dunno, I'll have to look. Maybe VW had a different logo in the past.

Your picture reminds me of the Goliath F200/400

A three wheeled vehicle manufactured by Borgward

check here: http://www.borgward-ig.de/d/index.htm  and look up "Typen"

Godspeed,

Those look pretty close but it's got four wheels (though my crude drawing does not show it)...

I think you mean the medical ''truck'' that was used to transport soldiers....it is more of a mix between a jeep and a truck. Am I on the right track?

If so then the vehicle you mean is even featured in Band Of Brothers (only shortly though).

That sounds a little more correct. The back is very very small though, maybe 6ft long.

[mr burns 132]

could be a hanomag or hanomag-henschel...

don´t know if they changed sometime,

i found this one on google:

[blackdog~ 0]

This might be a help, not sure if it's the same thing though. Looks to be about the right size.

I'll try to get a photo in the next few days...

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

A photo would be nice indeed. I did a search on Famo, Krupp, ect. But came up with nothing.

The logo looks like a "T", but I can't think of any german carmaker with a "T" as first letter or with the letter t somewhere in it's name (and which also made cars/trucks during ww2)

[blackdog~ 0]

Here is a pic. I got the car logo all wrong :P

I warned you it was ugly!
