Not D'Ieteren.
This car was made before the builder/designer launched his own company..

Apal - 1959 made by Edmond Perry on an Auto Union chassis!

That's the car! :applause:  :applause:
It's indeed made by Edmond Perry and based on a Auto-Union
But it is not an Apal as the brand was founded not until 1961. Appearantly they gave the car a certain name!

The name Perry is part of the name, but the other part has nothing to do with cars.
It's quite glamerous, though..
I've found it in one source on the internet and got a confirmation for it..

I do believe it's Pery (like Paul spells it) and not Perry.

BTW: On what Auto Union is this car based because I believe there were no such things as Auto Union road cars.
It must have been a DKW.

I thought it was easier...the only model I was able to find was a VW-based GT tuned by Okrasa, that is quite different...
BTW, this is how it looks inside, where you can read 3=6 :

I believe 'Casino-Pery' is the name you are looking for

Sadly, Photobucket has killed most of the original images in this puzzle.
