The chain of pastry shops "VIENA CAPELLANES" founded in 1873 is going to restore and relaunch a peculiar delivery vehicle, bodied like the old autogyro invented by Juan de la Cierva.
This original vehicle is one of the three delivery vans that were manufactured in 1935, based on the chassis and engines of the English car Singer Popular 9 HP.
The three vehicles were requisitioned during the Spanish Civil War, and at the end only one of them was returned, which was repaired and continued to provide delivery service until 1946.
The bodywork of the vehicles was carried out completely by hand in the workshop of Pablo Díaz Fernández, in Madrid, builder of the original Juan de la Cierva prototypes
