Very early one (no rear bumper). The Pick-up was introduced in august 1952.

Edit: I wonder if these were called 'Pick-up' or 'Pritschenwagen'?

Production of the Pritschenwagen Pick up started in August 1952. This one could have the domed rear lights introduced in March 1953, but I'm not sure. Nevertheless, it has the first type of gate panels ( they were changed in November ), so I think it can be dated as a 1953 Pick up.

Period price-lists called it "Pritschenwagen Pick up".
