This Duett has a bed that seems to be square with the width of the track width which is 1,32 m for the Duett. 1,321,32=1,74. Curb weight for a Duett Pickup is 1180 kg. 11800,1=118. Maximum bed size for a Duett A- or EPA-traktor is therefor 1,18 m2 while the pictured car has a bed that is around 1,74 m2 or bigger. While the A-traktor can have the original wheelbase the EPA-traktor is regulated to a maximum wheelbase of 225 cm. This car has the original wheelbase of 260 cm. rjluna2, the PV544 is a uni body construction with coil springs in the rear while the P210 was on a frame with leaf springs in the back. Leaf springs and frame can be seen in the picture above, therefor a P210. .
