Looks interesting. |

The wheels are irritating me, otherwise I would guess a Mercedes Benz LP-series |

I have to agree, the general shape of cab is identical, only the front wall seems to be different... Perhaps due to the distance/lights - what else it can be? http://www.flickr.com/photos/wd3203/2373177781/ |

![]() ![]() @Weasel: have I told, where all the vehicles in the Mercedes-Museum got their plates from? ![]() |

Oh, I forgot a detail: the driver's house is more important than the wheels! I remember, that in Italy (AFAIK in Switzerland, too) always the trucks had different, unique wheels, even today. See here, too: /vehicle_308101-Magirus-Deutz.html So it's quite sure a Mercedes LP. |

I'm not so sure it's a LP65. Couldn't it be something made by Renault or Berliet, as it's a french film? Further investigation is neccesary. -- Last edit: 2010-06-09 21:29:04 |

I'm fairly sure it is an LP (I once had the Wiking model ingo mentions). There's another vehicle behind it which might have confused Weasel. |

So LP, then we will delete it soon, I think. Neckarsulm? ![]() |

@not Neckarsulm. ![]() ![]() The plates, the exhibition-cars in the Mercedes-museum have, are collected from us license-plates-freaks. ![]() One pair I gave to the Museum, the H-SL 824 of my father's 1973 VW Passat, he had in 1978-80. It's on my dream-car in the exhibition - the 300 SEL 6.3 ![]() A pic from an IMCDB-member, CrazyCars had made it: http://img379.imageshack.us/img379/2457/1000896au8.jpg ![]() -- Last edit: 2010-06-10 18:53:17 |

Sad, it was not some personal plate. ![]() ![]() |

no, we don't have "real personalized" plates like in Poland, Austria, Denmark or Latuvia. There are only different combinations of the letters and ciphers behind the town-code possible. But not everything and not everywhere. It would be too comprehensive to talk about details. Some plate-freaks are busy with that since years... In the past (until the 90ies) it was more difficult with these personal combinations, as every authority-office had own ideas. Sometimes they are still there, these idiotic ideas of idiots of the authority. Better no details, I would be upset again... ![]() |

Our personalized plates are in fact usually terrible. I thought, it was maybe possible to "smuggle", to the MB kingdom, plate with camouflaged somehow "K70". That would be something - double win. However, I should guess, this kind of combinations are not possible in Germany - otherwise you would rather own such plates. ![]() |
