It is a DKW F 93 Cabriolette Winterthur from 1957.  A very limited number of this car was built.  This one was shown at Schwetzingen in 2009.  But I doubt that Cabriolette is a very appropriate name.

Apologies pguillem, my check unread posts doesn't seem to work at times.
It is a DKW F93 but I don't have the Cabriolette Winterthur model name.
I have what I believe is the name of the bodybuilder.
I'll lock it for you in case you have this name.

The Schwetzingen site only mentions "DKW F93 3=6 Carrosserie Winterthur, 1957".  So Winterthur is the bodywork and bye bye, poor Cabriolette !

You are correct and another point for you.
I had the name Schmid as the coachbuilder but I've noted your source and agree with you.
Perhaps Herr Schmid was the man behind Carrosserie Winterthur?
