Volkswagen Sedan 'Fusca' [Typ 1]
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Leganza BRThere is a very interesting theory on the origin of the name "Fusca" in the Brazilian models. According with Wikipedia, the origin of the name "Fusca" is related with the German pronunciation of the word "Volkswagen". The name of the letter V in German is "fau" and W it is "vê". When abbreviating the word Volkswagen for VW, the Germans spoke "fauvê". As soon as the Fusca was thrown in Germany, it was common to sentence "that is a VW" ("Das ist ein VW"). the abbreviation German "fauvê" soon becomes "fulque" and "fulca". "Since they began to circulate first Volkswagen, in 1950, it also appeared the diminutive of the word "Volkswagen" going by the influence of the German colony", explains Alexander Gromow for Jornal do Brasil of August 7, 1993 - "In Curitiba it is spoken "fuqui" or "fuque" and in Porto Alegre it is "fuca", it increases Gromow. "But in São Paulo, perhaps for a phonetics subject, they increased "S" in the word and Volkswagen turned "Fusca"." 2008-05-12 01:38

1972 Chevrolet Opala Cupê
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Ingo DE@antp: surely, there was an Opel Rekord C Coupé, also offered as Commodore A Coupé - and the same body was used for the extremely rare, Belgian made Ranger, too.

P.S.About the Ranger I've heard in this forum the first time. You always learn new things over here...

1972 Chevrolet Opala Cupê
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Ingo DE@rpcm: with GM-cars we have the problem, that they sell identical cars under a lot of names. See the actual Chevrolet-range in South America. All of them are European Opel/Vauxhall-models. While the new Chevrolets in Europe are re-named Daewoo's.
Since how many years Opel and Vauxhall-cars are identical (except RHD, LHD, but you can have RHD Opel, too)? The cars are on the same assembly line i nthe same plants. Just details like badges and hubcaps are different. So it's quite idiotical to say to a Opel Zafira "origin Germany" and to the same car with the Vauxhall-logo on it "orign GB".

1972 Chevrolet Opala Cupê
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
rpcm PTAlthough this coupé body also existed as Opel, the Citigolf is a Golf and it's still a VW, whereas this has a different brand and it's no longer an Opel, but a Chevrolet with more different items. This may bring some questions about other models too: for instance, aren't the Seat 124 or the 850 originally Italian models wearing a different brand?

1972 Chevrolet Opala Cupê
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Ingo DEWhen a Chevrolet Opala shall be "orign Brazil", than a VW Citigolf has to be "orign South Africa" with the same right. The situation is identical. We had this discussion somewhere else before, for example at the Citigolf. 2008-04-28 17:46

1970 Ford Corcel Belina
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Leganza BRThe Willys Overland was developing in partnership with Renault the project " M " that would create the good R12 in France. When Ford bought Willys, the south american project was very early. The platform and mechanical group was developed by the French factory, but the truck was made in Brazil in agreement with the local "taste". 2008-04-25 19:30

Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Leganza BRThe Willys-Overland do Brasil S.A manufactured since 1954 the Jeep Universal. In 1956 (July) the Rural (SUV) began to be set up here, with imported pieces and the same drawing of the American model.

Ford bought Willys-Overland in 1967. The Rural was renamed "Ford Rural" in 1972. The Pickup Willys was introduced in 1961.

FNM D-11.000
Iracema - Uma Transa Amazônica (1976)
Leganza BRYes Gag,


The FNM (Fábrica Nacional de Motores or National Factory of Motors in english) was founded in 1942 to produce airplanes engines. Then the company began to manufacture tractors, automobiles, refrigerators and trucks.

The first truck model was the italian Isotta Franschini, with the name FNM R-80, later D 7.300 in Brasil. The second contract was signed with Alfa Romeu. I guess the tuck of this pic is a FNM D-11000.

Look that (in portuguese): http://www.defesa.ufjf.br/fts/Caminh%F5es%20FNM.pdf
