Nono, the electric Reichspost-trucks already existed before WWI zur Kaiserzeit. But the SS-trucks for the gassing where made by the coachbuilder Gaubschat https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaubschat-Fahrzeugwerke which produced later on /vehicle_1085628.html

Robi ◊ 2019-10-12 23:43	Please change: This is a Bleichert, an electric truck made by the Leipzig-based company. I don't know the exact model, since they were produced from1925-1939 in different versions.
