Das Puch Automobil-Buch
The book "Puch-Automobile von 1900-1990" was published around 30 years ago. All editions are completely sold out, and you have a completely new book on this subject in front of you. Three decades of dynamic automobile development have fundamentally changed the former Puch factory in Graz Thondorf. Today, the most important vehicle production facility in Austria is located there, with its successor company MAGNA. Car brands from all over the world have their vehicles manufactured in Graz.
However, it all began on the initiative of a man with an iron will and brilliant technical and commercial vision: Johann Puch. This work, now available under the title "Das Puch Automobil-Buch" (weight: 2.5 kg!), offers many previously unknown facts and new insights into the early days of Puch automobiles.

Der Steyr-Puch Haflinger des Österreichischen Bundesheeres
The Steyr-Puch Haflinger is now a cult vehicle. Its museum home is the Puch Museum in Graz, where many variants are displayed. It can still be seen on the road, and thanks to the internet, there is a global community of Haflinger fans.
Walter Blasi describes in his book the long journey of this vehicle to becoming a key pillar of the Austrian Armed Forces. The groundwork for the Haflinger was laid in 1956, and the first prototypes were built in 1957. The test drives by the Graz testing department attracted great public interest. In 1959, the vehicle went into series production as the "Haflinger Type 700 AP". The name "Haflinger" comes from a well-proven mountain horse of the armed forces and was spontaneously coined during a demonstration. From 1958, the vehicle was tested in several military units. The Haflinger was used for commanders, command posts, and small radio teams. The standard version was four-seater, the radio Haflinger three-seater. The vehicle became a military export hit. 80 percent of the production was exported to 110 countries. In the 1970s, many vehicles were exported to Africa. The decline in demand was gradually offset by orders for its larger brother, the Pinzgauer.
