Mercedes-Benz Lo 2750 tilt truck, 1933-1936

At the end of the 1920s, a new era of truck production began at the Daimler-Benz factory in Gaggenau. In 1932, Mercedes-Benz introduced its first series of trucks, which were standardly equipped with a Diesel engine. It was a bold initiative and it paid off. In a short time, the reliable and efficient Diesel engine replaced the widely used Otto engine of that era.

After the global economic crisis of the late twenties, a revival of industry was lurking everywhere. Daimler-Benz AG did not waste time developing new, innovative commercial vehicles at its Gaggenau factory, which gained fame for its technical efficiency and reliability. The offer of Diesel-powered trucks at that time was nothing short of revolutionary.

Based on our platform truck replica, we also offer the Lo 2750 version with a flatbed frame covered with a tarpaulin. The tarpaulin of the model is tied with a piece of string passing through brass U-shaped hooks protruding from the eyelets of the tarpaulin, and is tied along the central line of the rear tailgate. The tarpaulin is removable, and the loading possibilities are virtually unlimited. Masterful finishing in three shades of green, red, and black ensures a harmonious combination of the appearance of this impressive truck replica.

As a tribute to co-founder Herbert Nickerl of CMC, his name is inscribed on the tarpaulin, as if a person was moving ahead of their time, which we believe he was.
