240Joe[/QUOTE Cut us some slack! Even though It's Hitler It's still history and is worth a mention.I am more than a little offended at a certain atheist pinhead on here posting about a documentary supposedly finding Jesus's bones but,he (like everyone)has the right to his opinion. |

Calling someone a pinhead, like you just did, is a violation.
I'm sure the moderator will be in contact with you soon. 240Joe |

Jim, I love this old Mercedes Benz history. This stuff is the deep roots of Mercedes. Without this kind of history, they would just be another car company. People like this (hitler) are what made Mercedes the car company with high standards, and the company thats ahead of the curve.
Say what you want, nay-sayers. This is not insulting. This is fascinating. This is what made a company called Mercedes-Benz. Jim, I am showing this one to my dad. My dad loves stuff like this. Thanks for sharing!

Hey Jim B.... Is that a picture of your new lady friend in your signature?
Also, I have to get those pitures off my digital camera still. Nothing like laziness...

While the topic of the thread is not offensive, I take exception to your glorification of Adolph Hitler. Hiltler did not make Mercedes what it is, he used Mercedes and the rest of the German industiral concern to further his efforts. The company called Mercedes-Benz was the result of a merger in 1926, long before Hitler was on the horizon. The engineering of the vehicles used by Hitler come from the designs by Dr. Hans Nibel, Dr. William Maybach and Fritz Nallinger during the early '30s. After the Allies destoyed the factory in WWII, MB went back to building the pre-war 170 model in 1947, because this was the only model that tooling was left intact after the factory was reduced to rubble. This was called the "era of reconstruction", during which MB produced the 300SL and 300 sedans, coupes, and cabriolets, along with the first unibody contruction MB models starting with the 1954 180 sedan and it's sporty brother, the 190SL. These "ponton" models ended with the top of the line 220SE in 1959. I should know, I bought my 1959 220SE over twenty years ago. Vehicle production during the war stopped during 1942, and the factory was busy building military vehicles and airplane engines for Hitler. The factory isn't very proud of this, and rightly so. Hitler did nothing for MB, except to parade around in cars that they had already designed, and were building in the late '30s. As a matter of fact, it is because of Hitler that the Allies bombed the factories into rubble. Only because the tooling for the 170 was left and the grace of the occupation Allies was MB allowed to begin production after WWII. Let's give credit where credit is due: Paul Bracq and Karl Wilfret gave us the production 300SL gullwing in 1954. Dr. Willaim Haspel and Paul Bracq designed the 300 series of the '50s, otherwise know as the Adenauer-wagen. These cars were on par with contemporary Rolls-Royce products. Paul Bracq also designed the W111 coupe/cabriolet models of the 1960's, and the highly coveted R113 chassis 280SL. Rudolph Uhlenhaut gave us the 300SEL 6.3. This is what made Mercedes-Benz what it is today. Maybe some people are confused with VW, the book "Small Wonder" by Walter Nelson is a good read for the facts about how Hitler created the people's car. |

Extremly interesting! Is this the bill of sale to the car that currantly resides in Canada?
Hitler was a big Mercedes fan and sent a lot of money there way.

What's so bad about Hitler?

His moustache was pretty bad.

That style of mustache served Mr. Hardy quite well.
I would guess that the only reason more people do not wear a "Fly" like that now, is because people associate it with Hitler. Just like few children are named Adolf nowadays.

I agree, but Chaplin was wearing his the same way .... must have been some kind of fashion in those day.
I definitely find it better looking on Chaplin then on the other guy ....

If you ask so directly, I'm going to tell you directly.
Because of him, the German Nation found itself in rubble and ashes for the second time in little more than 25 years. Yet, I firmly believe the guy was an implant. He was used because of his rethoric skills, which actually was more a "Gestikulation" than actual quality of speech. Beyond that, the guy was a lunatic, a drug addict and incoherent. Far less a qualified military strategist. The Nazis were a bunch of low life hooligans who took over the country and won the masses through brutality and murder. Besides the propaganda system. The original high ranking military commanders, who usually were of aristocratic bloodlines and descent, coming from a Monarchic state form, opposed his plans and orders often enough. At the risk of their lives and their families lives. Many true Germans have been killed and executed, only because they dared to resist or oppose .... What held the thing up was the 'Nature of the German Backbone', call it "Will" or whatever. But the direction it went, was wrong The Zionists had their hands in there just as much. And for anyone who has a brain and knows how to use it, try this: Out of the deepest depression in the past century, in which One US Dollar was worth 4.2 Billion German Reichsmark, this massive mobilisation was organized and orchestrated. Now, who were the financiers of this mobilisation?
