And June 16, 1961 TCDD Plant Managers and Engineers with Cer Administration Ministry of Transportation at the meeting by reading the script, 29 October 1961 until the development of the type of passenger car business is given the task shall be notified of the TCDD.

£ 1,400,000 for this job. The allocation is indicated. Time is 4.5 months!. During this period, a development of this scale can be made that work? Leave as set out to develop hiçten may be able to work a car was it?

The University Press of all countries to a handful of industrialists to politicians, can be heard nor the motor vehicle can be done what no one believes that, in private conversations, in interviews, film shows, these opinions stressed conferencing.

But these incredible things happening, and October 28, 1961 morning in Turkey, an automobile, smooth body, but not, on its own wheels and also in Turkey, made their own engine with the power of the Grand National Assembly Building will be taken to the front of President Cemal pasha GÜRSEL be offered a second to pasha leads to the mausoleum, and then participate in parades was in the Hippodrome.

How was this done? What brought, what was taken?

The project of another organization rather than being assigned to TCDD, TCDD at that time established for the purpose of repair, but extensive spare parts manufactured Ankara, Eskişehir, with factory in Adapazari, Sivas, and a significant technical potential and trained workers to engineers from a strong technical staff located.

High management group Bozoğlu Engineers Emin (Necmettin Erbakan is in the group) as head of 20 engineers with an extraordinary pace in the comfort of the heart to work, but it had played a role in the first degree by eşyöneltmek.

Time of the race against acquiring the second factor görevalan engineers, project during the weekend, including daily, at least 12'şer hours, when necessary, some nights, a car has been dismantled over the cedar cut by a few hours to stay at work will not significantly thimble to the case have hearts were given.

For working, Eskişehir whether made in railway foundry in an unused factory building was chosen. Various types of hand as best car structure will be closely examined after the idea of the size of type, engine, transmission, etc.. other groups and are designed and manufactured parts will be to focus on how it was concluded.

First, the car's trunk were determined. Four to five people in total, 1000-1100 kg. one type of medium weight in was agreed. 4-stroke and 4-cylinder engine as, 50-60 BG. should have.

Bodywork prepared for 1 / 10 scale models selected from 1 / 1 scale plaster model was made. Kroserin roof, hood and similar hair, then this model from the mold made of concrete blocks and shot one by one produced by hammering heels were corrected.

Decision given a 4-cylinder engine subablı hand, body and head poured in Sivas railway Factory, Ontario were processed in the factory. Piston, piston ring and the arm was held in Eskişehir. Ankara mounted in the engine factory. Braking in 40 BG. 'Can not be more than this engine as an alternative to power in Ankara Plant as set out in the same body and crankshaft has developed another type.


Type B is called a third engine, this time from the top subablı a 6-cylinder car engine which is inspired by well-known, but the crank and cam shafts all over again drawn, by calculating in Eskisehir were manufactured. This is a 60-hp engine braking. 'Had reached the station, and then converted Diesel used to be the electric light was applied to the group.

With the front suspension kits for "Mc Phearson" system was proposed. Very commonly used these days, this system, we find at that time as far as implemented by a single company. Adopted and were manufactured in Eskisehir again.

Towards the end of September, the front and rear glass, available on the market with the obligation to keep model was slightly modified, and one A and one B type of conflict of the two bodies, two separate motors were prepared.

Transmissions, Ankara Fabrikasınca all was made locally.

To mount one of the biggest problems encountered when late-motor integration to provide housing, clutch, gas and brake control and steering mechanism to place the most suitable location was found. Adjustable steering proposal was not accepted. Two years later, Cadillac brought it as a novelty.

Finally, in mid-October Revolution, the first of the car could come tecrubeye ready. Electrical equipment, differential gears, bearings and engines with cross snow tires, glass and all non-local parts, respectively.

On the one hand this is the first experience the car's path on the one hand while continuing to equip the second car was. Black color of the paint finish of the Revolution, but the number two hit evening October 28. Pasta and polish the loaded train to Ankara sevkedilmek, while the night was way. In steam locomotives, taken on the train to jump from the chimney as a security precaution due to possible sparks fuel tank was empty.


Train arrived in Ankara against the morning. Two Revolutions in the district at that time Sıhhıye present Court House was the place in the factory in Ankara railway. Maneuver to allow stores to put only a few liters of gasoline. Actual supply, Sıhhıye'deki Mobil gas station could be carried out in the morning, then go to parliament would be. To the plant the morning of October 29 with the car, motorcycle traffic team consisting of a very crowded between the Revolution's eskordun set out. Output, but eskorttakiler, the news business is not getting gas to Mobil road continued without stopping. Come in front of Parliament when the situation was understood, hurry brought gasoline 1 landed in the car, will be number 2 in front of Parliament at the time had come, and Cemal Pasha, Ataturk's Mausoleum to go to the number 2 car ride was the revolution. Was set off, but stopped 100 meters after the engine cough. Cemal Pasha's "What's going on?" To the question of steering Y. Muh. Rifat SERDAROĞLU "My Pasha, gasoline is over." Replied. Pasha apology from the number 1 was like a pass to the revolution. Corresponding with a large tolerance to Cemal Pasha, Ataturk's Mausoleum and the car went in when the famous "West head to head east but did you do with a car lost supply." The words said.

Sözbirliği of all the newspapers the next day to "100 meters to go and broke down" at the title of their revolution number 2 on the same day in the Hippodrome is attending the parade, the press, what we do, nor to Cemal Pasha, Ataturk's Mausoleum another revolution is going with the old car, only news, Comments and spent so much of the money wasted in paragraphs that were hit dem. However, the same year the budget of the Ministry of Agriculture has placed the "At reclamation of his generation" for £ 25 million from appropriations and the results did not mention anyone by. I still wonder at prompting a generation of progress has been until that day Do I buy ...

Let us look at an automotive industry: in accordance with requirements of the economy in the form of assembly, starting today, have come to the state in large industrial companies which one truck-bus-Automobile companies able to produce hundreds of thousands of vehicles ... Imported, although it is clear routes and their sales can now increase.

Ever wonder if our media did not take a positive text of the Revolution, automobile not been done, an automotive industry may occur in Turkey was, no doubt. Because the revolution is the emergence of the automobile that "Turkey can not be done in the car and the engine" had destroyed opinion had changed the direction of discussions.
