1936 GUTBROD Standard Typ H204 Merkur Pritschenwagen
This Type H204 Merkur was for sale in the Czech Republic.
Accompanying text with advert: "Single cylinder, two stroke, Hurth gearbox, dynamo starter, registration documents, 4 in Germany, 1 in Austria and this one in CZ. There are no more".
So that's a very interesting offer.
The Gutbrod Standard H204 Merkur was based on the Standard Superior passenger car developed by Josef Ganz (Budapest, 1898-1967) in late 1932.
After Wilhelm Gutbrod (near Stuttgart, 1890-1948) resigned at the Carl Kaelble firm he started as an independent entrepreneur.
The brandname Standard was introduced in 1933 with the streamlined Superior 400 passenger microcar. Simultaneously a range of small commercial vehicles was presented based on the Superior 400 like the 1934 Standard Merkur.
After the production of the Superior 500 passenger car was discontinued in 1935 the brand name Standard disappeared in 1938. From then Wilhelm Gutbrod offered his commercial vehicles under his own name.
