Good news: you don't have to identify this car.

Bad news: for one point, please respond and identify what is in the trailer and name the year the picture was taken.  ;D

Can some experts describe what they don't see?

Besides the lack of license plate, radiator badge and wheel insignia, I don't see a back seam on the driver's door. Is that just one big door?

I think it is 1933 and in the trailer behind the Horch is the type 22  Auto Union Silver Arrow

No, there are two doors on each side. But I am not interested in the car you can see (and from which I have taken away some identification marks). I want to know what is in the trailer  :)

I didn't forget you  ;)

Your answer is correct. This is the way Auto Union transported the first silver arrows before they had a proper truck for it. They just had it in a trailer towed by a Horch 830 sedan.

Congratulations, another point earned.
