The Sound of Silence: 1924 Berliet electrique

• 
• 

There are many arguments for the use of the electric car. The one depicted here may be obvious but it never came to our mind so far. We understand this Type VTB electric hearse is one of two survivors. One being fully restored and in the collection of the Fondation Berliet. The car we see here is unrestored and is despite a few missing details and missing batteries, unchanged since it left the factory in 1924. From the outside is little to be seen of the electrifrying character of the machine. But we will allow you a glimpse of the firewall, and you will see this is not an area to approach with wet hands, unless you want to change from chauffeur into 'client' of this 22 km/h  'delivery'.
Sunday 6 November up for auction by Osenat at Epoq'Auto, Lyon.
