Well, that connection might just be a good one - as there are some pictures of a Glockler at the same site as Mr. Utz visited to find pictures of the Opel record car that he posted two days after this...  ;D

Well, come to think of it, that is quite a long nose in that picture of yours. The car, though, has a big rear.

Though now defunct, the manufacturer of this car is hardly unknown; ditto the mechanical configuration of this car - though it's appearance is a tad unusual.
