This appears to be Ferry Porsche (in civilian cap) conducting Typ. 128 Schwimmwagen testing.

don't see why not, he was partial to flat caps. looks like an early 128 and I'm pretty sure this is also Ferry driving car number 3 with Dr P looking on

the production version had a more boat like hull, here's number 20. these cars tended to suffer from flexing so that is why the type166 has a shorter wheelbase
