What is this? Was it on a four-wheeler or a three-wheeler? Is the Peugeot emblem purely cosmetic? All questions...
Ben van Helden trains in goldsmithing and is passionate about classic motorcycles. He's highly experienced and skilled in both fields. And he knows a tremendous amount about "old stuff." A tremendous amount, but not everything. So what he doesn't know? That's what the dingest in the accompanying photos is. Ben found the object in France. And, along with the owner, is very curious about what it could be, or what it was mounted on or to. The phenomenon could be related to a Peugeot Triporteur or a modified Vespa. Although I can't find that roof anywhere, I can find the grille. It's from the 50s. Does anyone recognize anything about it? Anyone who does/knows anything can share their information via redactie@amklassiek.nlBen van Helden thanks you in advance for your efforts.
And if there is a search going on, then we are also curious to know what that man with the army helmet is behind.
This is where Google Lens comes in;
The motorcycle in the picture is the Killinger & Freund, a German front-wheel drive motorcycle from 1935.
The motorcycle was an attempt by five German engineers from Munich to design a streamlined and modified version of the German Megola motorcycle.
The development took three years and the result was an engine with a cylinder capacity of 600 cc.
The Killinger & Freund motorcycle was lighter and simpler than a standard 100 cc motorcycle of the time.
