Yes, it's a Dyna Veritas roadster, but who made the body for this car?

Motorbase says "Until the Dyna, all the bodies had been built by Spohn of Ravensburg.  The Dyna-Veritas had a body built by Baur of Stuttgart."  So I guess that it is Baur.

Yippie !  But the last photograph is not the same (different windshield).  Which of them is Drews-built ?  Both ?

Notice how the top and the windscreen fold FORWARD.
