At this time (before 1925) there is not much choice for Mercedes of this size 1,75 to truck L1 with truck frame and here Niederrahmen N1 low frame. |

Benz, not Mercedes, which I think did not built trucks at the time and usually had a spitzkühler. |

Problem is, we have the star emblem of Mercedes on the grille, while Benz had laurel wreath with lettering BENZ. It is true Benz was first truck make in the world, but here we have a 4 cyl Daimler engine~ 1921 not yet a Diesel which came in 1923 Mercedes trucks were built in Sindelfingen while Benz were made in Mannheim and later in Gaggenau Mannheim is still active building busses 1925 was the merging year of Mercedes-Benz The fact that the two roots of the automobile would unite was an organic development. -- Last edit: 2024-07-03 00:03:23 |

But what was the Benz logo from 1917-26? |

Good Question, from 1916 onwards they seem to have had only a lettering BENZ on grille mash or an circular emblem of other style. |

1916 onwards there has been an excentric variation of the circular BENZ signet has to do with Gaggenau factory here 1922 1CN same class as our Mercedes. -- Last edit: 2024-07-02 23:58:57 |
