Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum and already seeking information on my
"almost bought" 34 Sedan.
The seller does not verify whether its a 65hp or 80hp engine.
Therefore can someone decode the engine Code?
4634434
The cars VIN is DA-378-10
Many thanks in advance for your help from Germany!
Steve

The raised number casting number on te right side of the engine is 837231. So beside the Engine# this "837231" is always casted in the block and that's what marks it as a 80hp?!

Hi folks,
another 34 DA Town Sedan is about to survive.
I bought it yesterday - just couldn't resist and my wife likes him too ;-)
The proportions of this model are just about perfect :-)
Got it from a dealer near the border to the netherlands and he had it from the third(!) owner who had it since 1958 ...

Not a Town Sead but rather a coach.
Town Sedan has a built-in trunk and a shorter rear body section.
