This Heb was the first one that was shown to the public in march 1949 in Geneva at the autoshow. The pict was taken late 50's and at that time, the car was updated and got a new roof, karmannn curved rear window, later bumpers and a new red paint coat. The scoop on the engine cover is also changed to give place for the big Swiss licence plate. Parts of this car were found in a garage and car is now reconstructed, but not finished yet. It was seen in primer in Bad Camberg years ago.

I think the picture was taken here:

Maybe they can do a reshoot of the picture when it's restored. Smile
