That too is a repost but in the absence of a working search facility I cannot properly point to it. First search did show it as a puzzle by Tifosi, but more than that I cannot be bothered to fight.

According to "Autodesign in Nederland" (Jan Lammerse) this car, finished in 1956 after 18 months of work, was based on a 1938 DKW F7 chassis and 2-cylinder engine. It existed until 1981, when it was bought by someone who demolished the car and only used the chassis  :-\

It's time someone made that sort of thing a criminal offence!
