In the 4th thumbnail of the scrapyard, there's a Volkswagen Beetle with a split-oval rear window. Aren't those pretty rare these days? |

@CougarTim: Yes, but there must have been a good few still around in 1961 - not all in scrapyards, either. @Ralph: in your thumbnail showing the Gutbrod, do you have any idea what that grille in the middle belongs to? I've a feeling I ought to know, and I don't. |

@chris40: not realy a idea. is this a truck or a car? ???Ostner Rex 4 http://www.hanomag-kurier.de/kr_0048.jpg |

Hmm, it's not exactly the same grille. Due the size of the front lamps it's surely something pre-war. @Ralph: "truck or car" is a problem with pre-war-cars in the Germany after the war, because a lot of the few cars, which have survived the war, which were not destroyed, not confiscated by Wehrmacht or SS - or later on by the Allied troops, were changed in the 40ies to small trucks. @CougarTim: compared with the other cars, you can see on these pics, a split-screen-Beetle is the most common one! In that times and today much more. |

Could it be a Tempo E 600: /vehicle_99547-Tempo-E-600-1936.html ? |

Could be. Yes, you're coming closer. |

I'd agree that it is a Tempo E-600. The vehicle in the top row half hidden by the left actor might be a post-war Ostner Rex 4 (1950-55). I haven't yet found an online-picture to show you ... only in print. |
