The German truck manufacturer Büssing had the same construction realized in the early 80ties but was not accepted by the market. Therefore, the concept remains for special applications of interest only. Most of the drivers had problems accepting the low drivers position
Only possible with the Büssing then MAN underfloor engine. Unfortunately this engine concept doesn't exist anymore in trucks today. The engine had to be in a box because of engine noise laws in the late production years, maybe this had caused temperature problems. Was funny to see this box nearly scatching the ground on volume trucks with small wheels.
I have seen it once in reality, was around 1990 on the A1 at night, near Remscheid. It was running uphill with about 50 m long profiles very slow with a warning vehicle behind, I was overtaking. Seen it on photos before and immediately recognized it.
If I hear a foreigner say "travelling on the legendary german Autobahn" I know, he knows nothing. "THE AUTOBAHN" does not exist. The word "Autobahn" is just the translation of the word Highway. Do not use it. Just call our highways what they are - german highways. Or would you call french highways "autoroute"? Or highways in Spain "carretera"?!?!
I think it stems from the fact that unlike most countries in Europe, and dare I say, around the world…it’s well known that some parts of the German motorway (autobahn) is de-restricted….so being a German word, instead of saying German motorway, it’s become more acceptable from those outside it Germany to call them “Autobahns” ..using your examples of France and Spain, yes I’m pretty sure people would call them those names…if it was well known they had de-restricted sections. The addiction of speed on roads that aren’t race tracks is a love for many people 😂

I, live near Colonia and i remember this "Thing", someday i came across the street and the Schnibbelmobil was parked bevore the Colonia Garage. Liked the video about it, thumbs up.

this truck is still alive, is has one job every jear as a mobile Stage in the big Carneval parade in Cologne
the Steinwinter Supercargo is similar: watch the walkaround : Steinwinter Supercargo 2040
Büssing Supercargo Decklaster 1965 (!)
I both want to drive one and am terrified of driving one.

The Toyota Dyna "Easy Riding" Super Low Cab is truck with a lowered cab, but not so low.
good
This is an unusual beauty. I love how dieselpunk it looks.
I saw it live at a motorway gas station. Chassis and engine from the MAN underfloor, Ford Granada body and a front from the small Mercedes Transporter
Thanks for sharing your experience! Seeing that unique combination live must have been quite the sight!

Thank you for this video. I’m seeing this car nearly daily, now I know some more of it’s story. :)
...have you ever heard abaut the "Mercedes 300SL Schnelltransporter", made for transporting Racecars to Factory-Pitstop and back to the Race?
seen it in the netherlands. it was used for transporting large roofplates. it was a cool monster doing what it was made for.

@@friktionrc the thing is, Americans think "the Autobahn" is a special road where its allowed to drive without speed limit...

@plpGTR Hello bitter fellow person, I call them motorways. P.S. My favourite piece of music isn't Highway by Power Station. ;)
Wow cool Truck 🔥

Thanks for the insight! It's fascinating to see the similarities between the Schnibbelmobil and the Boeing steer car. Those vehicles are truly unique!
On 05:04 that is a different truck based on the same idea. So at least two types of this creation were made.
You have to forgive him the narrator doesn't even know how to speak 😊😅😂
Glad to see pics of the Strick Cabunder.
With today's tech I think it could work.
I have heard of it here in NZ, and still want to see it!
He'll yeah I want to drive it, it's so ugly, it's cool 😎
leider verschwinden diese tollen Ideen so schnell, wie sie gekommen sind! Inovation fehlt heute etwas!
Gott sei Dank hat sich dieses Klump nicht durchgesetzt😮😮😮😮😮
@@johannhans.b.8184 für diese spezielle Nische war das doch perfekt.
@@miriamlana833 in den 80iger wollte Steinwinter damit in den Fernverkehr.
Fa. Berger hatte damals den Prototyp.

It's always cool to hear from someone who has seen the Schnibbelmobil in person. Glad you enjoyed the video, thumbs up!
@@GearTechHD I've seen it even in action.😁
Good gosh WOW 😳 a freak!!!!
Yes......
vorne Kühler wie beim Ford Transit
THE MERCEDES TRANSPORTER
Cool old Croc Colonia/GF Truck.. I woulda like to drive-it.. even i do get sea sick..
K
Is this the one used in Alien?
01:35, Belgrade, Serbia...
Steinwinter was the answer
3:37 I have never heard of replacement of the engine. It has to be an MAN ‘underfloor’-engine as well.
Maybe when built the serial underfloor engines were too weak, and they tuned it, the turbocharger at 2:53 looks not serial.
Magnifique looks like a Renault 18 estate with Sprinter front side 😍
It’s a Ford Granada Estate body with a Mercedes front side, but not from a Sprinter..
