Rona!d Posted April 5, 2013 Share #4761 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) One side note to my riddle #4714: The families car seems to be a Hansa-Lloyd "8" Trumpf-Ass. It´s build quality and technical solutions were said to be much superior to similar Horch cars of that era. 1928-1930 8 cyl. 100 hp 5,2 ltr 120 km/h coachbuilder maybe "Gärtner" I had that in my archive, but forgot my notes.

Rona!d Posted April 5, 2013 Share #4768 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) Without checking the coachbuilder, that must be a Lancia from the design. edit: Wait, wait, should have checked the reflections on the wing, stupid me!

wlaidlaw Posted April 5, 2013 Share #4770 Posted April 5, 2013 My guess - a Lancia Di-Lambda. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona!d Posted April 5, 2013 Share #4771 Posted April 5, 2013 Checked my Alfa guess and it should be the mentioned 6C 1750 GS Spider (no. 8513078) with a supercharged 1900 engine (no. 121315126). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wlaidlaw Posted April 6, 2013 Share #4773 Posted April 6, 2013 Gerd, What a strange radiator for an Alfa. I don't think I have ever seen one like that. I usually expect to see the flat radiator like the red 6C2500 alongside. Thanks for posting those photos. Castagna did make some large heavy bodies for Alfa's in the 1930's. There is a dark blue 8C around, with a very bulbous 4 seat tourer body. I believe they also bodied a 6C as a large Sedanca de Ville saloon but I assume that must have been re-bodied as it seems no longer to be around. One would think Italian coach builders will always be super sporty and stylish but Castagna seem to have been pretty conservative. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona!d Posted April 6, 2013 Share #4774 Posted April 6, 2013 Gerd, what a wonderful car that is. First owner was a woman and it got licensed on my birthday (fortunately not my year, haha). Those Bosch lamps fooled us all. I'll post the next this afternoon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmo Posted April 7, 2013 Share #4775 Posted April 7, 2013 Ronald & Wilson, I like this car very much and from the article on the website of Bonhams it appears that I took the pictures on the first outing of the car after restauration works made in Holland in 2007. Bonhams 1793 : 1930 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 4th Series GS Spider, Chassis no. 8513078 Engine no. 121315126 It was the 6C2500 Raduno that passed through Antwerp. The first pictures are on the "Grote Markt" in front of the town hall the last 2 were taken the next day in the surrounding of Antwerp where the partcipant were holding their goodby lunch.

Rona!d Posted April 9, 2013 Share #4780 Posted April 9, 2013 UliWer, you got it. That was a too generous crop It´s grandpas Hansa 2400 fastback with folding top. I have some photographs in a nice scenery (Switzerland), but most of them only show the front or crops of the car with persons, so this one is better for showing the sideline. Welcome, dear visitor!
