The Maybach Zeppelin has a bit of a sinister character to it. It is easy to imagine some National Socialist Party functionary flying down the Autobahn in this car, on his way to check invasion progress of some poor, European Nation. The 1000 pound plus v-12 had to be mounted on a truck chassis to support it. Hard to imagine it would be a very good handling car with all that weight over the front wheels, before power steering.
It can just be seen in the background of “Divco and Duesies”. It’s first starring role was in “Oh, the Humanity”, part of Ken and Larry’s Concours d’Elegance.
