I´ve photoshopped the mascot and the logos away.

May our Pros know the basis vehicle?

The base must be a Horch 8 Typ 350, but I'm not quite sure about the body. Is it by Jos.Neuss?

LOCKED for you!

You´re right about the basis vehicle, but the coachbuilder is a different one.

After a look in the right book, I can tell you, that it is a Horch 8 Typ 375 Roadster-Coupé from 1931 with bodywork by Alexis Kellner. Since Kellner was liquidated in 1930 and bought by Drauz afterwards, I now understand why the coachbuilders emblem is triangle shaped. I think the original Kellner emblem had a different shape.

And as far as I know it was bodied by the Berlin based company of Kellner (Berlin Westend, Kaiserdamm 27).

There was no relation to the well known french Paris based Kellner coachbuilding company (Paris 125, Avenue Malakoff)
