DKW Fraser Nash 1955

Yes; it was a proposal to build this sports car with a DKW engine, but after one disastrous outing at the Dundrod TT in 1955 it was put away at the back of the factory and forgotten about whilst Auto Union went on to produce their own (much better-looking!) sports car.  It has only recently resurfaced.
