[QUOTE="mhku, post: 383303, member: 190842"] Not relevant to the original post but... VW Beetle: "By late 1935 the first prototypes were on the autobahns, the V1 saloon and a convertible V2, these cars had aluminium bodies mounted over traditional wooden frameworks. In 1936 steel bodies mounted over all-steel floorpans were used, powered by a 984cc, 22bhp engine that could reach a top speed of around 65 mph. " "In '36 the first 3 prototypes were ready (two sedans and one cabriolet) " No idea if Ferdinand Porsche had "an idea" of the design before this period.
