Two men and their dream
In 1962, a sporty two-seater convertible was created under the name Jamos GT in the Austrian capital of Vienna. The naming was an artificial word from the surnames of both designers – Jauernig and Moser.
After countless hours, the coachbuilder Fritz Jauernig and the Fiat-car dealer Peter Moser set their own body design on very small 12-inch wheels, equipped it with a chassis of a Puch 500, and powered it with a 643 cc Puch-engine that delivered 33 hp. The production of the car body was not a problem, as the body construction Jauernig existed since 1911, and a shape was produced in a classical way. First of all a wooden model in original size was produced and from those a plaster mould was manufactured and was laminated with fiber-glass soaked polyester. Own window panes had to be produced for this new and very light outer form and for this purpose special basic forms were produced of wood. The complete do-it-your-self-coupé was weighted 500 kg, reached a maximum speed of around 110 km/h and got its individual authorization for road use. Although Peter Moser was taking part on mountain races in Austria with his Jamos GT, however the success was limited as any interested parties would drive this cope under merciless racing conditions and therefore the production of this unique model was not continued.
The sports career of Peter Moser and the Jamos GT was finally finished with less fortune and the sporty small vehicle was purchased without any regrets. After an Intermezzo in wrong hands, the sporty unique model is in the meantime in the possession of the family Jauernig.
