Named "Motorisierte Krankenfahrstühle" = "motorized wheelchairs". They was even a sub-class of the driving-licence-classes. On annother pic of this movie you can see the wee moped-plate (just an insurance-plate, not a regular plate). So it has max.50 ccm. The moped-experts here may identify the engine, but most probable it's the well-known 49ccm-"Fichtel & Sachs"-engine, used in masses of any kind of vehicles and stationary machines. This motorized wheelchair is newer, it looks very 70ies-ish. It has to be checked, which manufacturers still have existed then. I'd go for Meyra, as it still today is the biggest German producer of all kind of handicapped-equipment. -- Last edit: 2014-02-10 19:18:16
