    Description:

    In 1914 - shortly before the start of the First World War - Benz, like some other German manufacturers, had begun to equip its models with sleek pointed radiators. Although flat radiators were still available on request, most customers preferred the fashionable pointed radiator versions, which were reminiscent of the bow of speedboats and made the cars look fast even when stationary. In 1912, the Benz 10/25 PS was added to the smaller Benz 10/20 PS as the next largest model. In the same year, the car received a more powerful engine and was sold as the Benz 10/30 PS. After a brief interruption due to the First World War, production was resumed in 1921.

    According to available information, old registration papers and historical photos, the rolling chassis described here was originally fitted with a box body by the Schlingmann butcher's shop in the Dortmund area, whose family still owns the vehicle today.

    The vehicle was completely dismantled and restored many years ago. In the course of the restoration and relocation, the original box body was removed to give the vehicle a sportier body. The project was not completed and is therefore now offered as a rolling chassis.

    Engine:
    4-row cylinder, 2610 cm³, 30 hp
