After the global economic crisis of the late 1920s was over, an industrial resurgence was looming large everywhere. The Daimler-Benz AG lost no time in developing new, innovative commercial vehicles at its factory in Gaggenau, which made a name for efficiency and technical reliability. The offer of diesel-powered trucks back then was nothing short of being revolutionary.
\nBased on our replica of the racing-car transporter LO 2750, we introduce this 2.75-ton platform truck of the type LO 2750. Sturdy, compact-looking, and equipped with an economical 65 hp diesel engine, it was a popular means of transportation for medium- and small-sized companies in the 1930s. With a spacious, easily accessible deck and a maximum load up to 2.75 tons, this truck was capable of handling almost every transport need. Between 1933 and 1936, approximately 3,500 diesel-powered units of the LO 2750 rolled off the Daimler-Benz assembly line in the northern Black Forest.
\nWe hereby offer you a standard version of this replica with an open loading platform in a two-tone finish. Made of real wood, the side and tail boards can be folded down. This masterpiece of model making is complete with a beautifully crafted cabin and an authentic 4-cylinder diesel engine housed under a three-piece detachable bonnet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
At the end of the twenties, a new era of truck manufacturing began in the factory of Daimler-Benz in Gaggenau. Their plans were calculated and different. By 1932 they presented the first truck series that featured the diesel engine as a standard feature. This was a daring initiative and it paid off. Within a short period of time, the diesel engine replaced the then commonly used Otto-engine. The diesel engine, because of its high reliability and efficiency, became the benchmark for all other truck engines. With a new fleet of highly adaptable and customizable trucks, a new Era in trucking was born.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":11159,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[648,290,62,74,603,613,617],"product_tag":[451],"class_list":{"0":"post-2949","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-available-models","7":"product_cat-all-products","8":"product_cat-models-118","9":"product_cat-mercedes-benz","10":"product_cat-evergreens","11":"product_cat-pre-war-vehicles","12":"product_cat-trucks-transporter","13":"product_tag-racing-transporter","15":"first","16":"instock","17":"taxable","18":"shipping-taxable","19":"purchasable","20":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
