It is a scale model proposal for the BMW PT 2000 from 1966/1967. It was supposed to have a Brabham chassis, a glassfibre body and the famous BMW Apfelbeck engine.

Yes, designed by Manfred Rennen in 1966. I am not sure, if it is based on a Brabham chassis, ike the first monoposto with the Apfelbeck engine. LOCKED for you to find the type of the car

PT-2000, FII-Modell. They wanted a Brabham chassis and the Apfelbeck engine in it. Maybe only a windtunnel modell was built (with no mechanicals).

It is a sketch of the BMW PT 2000 from 1966 by Manfred Rennen
One more point for you!

There may be some confusions with the Brabham-chassis. The Apfelbeck engine has been tested 1966 in a F1-Brabham-chassis. It's not clear, if that was a BT 7 or BT 11...
If the PT 2000 should have been based on a Brabham-chassis, only BT 8 would have been the choice. But there is no proof of that anywhere.
