Leonhard Weiss brought sand and bricks to the construction site
Leonhard Weiss - founded in 1900 - was a dynamic building contractor during the years of the Federal Republic's economic miracle and relied on the reliable air-cooled Magirus from Ulm. The corner hood of the 1960s is still considered a typical representative of that time when the agile building material transporters were on the road all day long to supply the construction site. The corner hood with a short wheelbase and tipper was one of the accelerators of the economic miracle in Germany - it provided sand and bricks. Just like Leonhard Weiss, the construction companies relied on this compact tipper truck and appreciated the air-cooled Howler from Ulm. WIKING has launched the Magirus corner hood with a new chassis and new platform in order to close a model gap in the lower weight class. The platform can of course be set up and the free-swinging rear bracket opens by itself.
