Very cool, had not seen that one before.

it was designed by K.C. Volkhart as a fast courier car for Luftwaffe


I like the center headlight.

In this article it says the original colour was matt lime green & in 1999 a 1944 engine & transmission were fitted to replace newer items that had been fitted over the years.

Older photos of it would be cool to see.

Very interesting car.

The original post is from 2013, the web site must have gone dead.
