Doesn't the Mercedes star sometimes just indicate the powerplant under the bonnet?? |

They give the exact same info for both trucks, one looks indeed like an Axor (cabover) but I can't find an Axor look like the other one or like the one here ... |

then we could list it as MErcedes Benz only on truck racing results Sascha Lenz is listed with Mercedes Benz Link to "en.wikipedia.org" |

hmm here it is described as a "Mercedes-Brasil-Hauber" this means it's a long nose from Brazil ?! see post 5 http://forum.bauforum24.biz/forum/index.php?showtopic=25305 EDIT check this Mercedes does build such truck in Brazil http://static.commercialmotor.com/big-lorry-blog/mercedes-1.jpeg -- Last edit: 2014-04-02 18:24:04 |

Well, obviously it is long nose, and from MB Brazil (as I do not recall having ever seen these MB trucks in Europe) As posted above, it looks like the L-Series, not sure it is that though. May be something built just for race (like "silhouette" race cars). -- Last edit: 2014-04-02 18:26:26 |

Strange since the Axor is a cabover, ( no hood ) |
