The Goliath 1100 was a model line that included sedans, wagons and light trucks in the mid-'50s to early '60s. The "Express" was the light truck and car series. The company, Goliath Werke (part of Carl. F. W. Borgward GmbH., which included Lloyd Werke and Hansa Werke) produced many differnent types of automobiles, large trucks, and various other modes of transport, in addition to this little truck. In 1961, under dubious circumcumstances the factory filed for bankruptcy and ceased operations. Carl. F. W. Borgward died in 1963 from heart failure.
These trucks were second in terms of production behind Volkswagen at the time.
This truck has a flat "boxer", 1.1 litre, four cylinder watercooled, front-mounted engine and was also front-wheel drive. It's output was roughly 40-60 Hp.
