No matter it's scarcity, quiz car #365 appeared to be wellknown. Probably as it was exposed at last Rétromobile in Paris. No less than 13 competitors - among them various judges - came up with the right make: Skoda. Also with the correct type 935. A watercooled, 2 litre opposing flat four of 2 litres, positioned right before the rear axle, with the radiator in front. Often mentioined is the central chassis tube which at first was used as petrol tank as well.
Most are convinced we are looking at a 1935 car which opens a discussion: the sign at Retromobile said 1935-1937, probably referring to the supposed 2 exemplars made. In that case, which of the two is this survivor? And like Beat Weibel writes, was there in fact a second one ever Here the car seen prior to restoration and here in nearly new condition (and front). Take note of the wheels which are different compared to the original photos. Or maybe this is the only noticeable difference between car nr.1 and car nr. 2? The answers by 'Vintage', Alan Spencer, Beat Weibel and Timo Laitinen were best detailed. In the end Beat Weibel's answer was best. Congratulations Beat! We are looking forward to the moment this unique streamliner will be on show in fully restored condition at the Škoda Museum
