Eriba Puck!

YESSSSS WE BOUGHT IT!
An Eriba Puck with original Italian papers and number plates from 1973.
Imported from Germany in 1972. But we don't know the year of construction yet. Please help on this.

We were in love with it since we spot it for the first time more than one year ago, just around the corner, from a caravan/camper dealer in our city, Pistoia, in Tuscany.
We've seen a lot of these around Europe, often towed by VWs, but this was the ONLY ONE we could see here in Italy, and now WE GOT IT!
Every time we passed from that street, we always had a quick look at the little object parked among the modern caravans and campers. We were afraid someone could buy it.
Some time ago it was moved about 50 meters and for a moment I had a shock!
But Fabio, the dealer, was not selling it. Once he told us he would use it for show in his next new store. But the new store got stucked in burocracy and so recently the caravan had become his little son's preferred place for playing.
Yesterday he told us: "If you want to buy, you can". And we didn't want to miss this opportunity. So we gave him the advance.
Keep your eyes wide open out on the streets, because soon you might see something like this:
