In family ownership for over 50 years - Original cardboard cover letter available - Chassis restored years ago - Interesting project awaiting completion 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 World War I, 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 for the Schlingmann butcher's shop in the Dortmund area and was sold in the 1970s to its second owner, whose family still owns the vehicle today. The vehicle was completely dismantled and restored many years ago. In the course of the restoration, the original box body was removed in order to provide the vehicle with a sportier body, The project was not completed and is therefore now offered as a rolling chassis.
