What is it based on? (probably not that hard)
Who built it? (a little harder I guess)

I'm running out of Mercedes-Benz chassis with pointed radiators and spoke wheels. So was it built on a chassis usually featuring a flat radiator like Typ Nürburg?

The model I'm looking for has a pointed radiator, but less pronounced and not every car of that series.
Keep on searching, you surely will find it

But we are talking about a car chassis, not a van chassis like L3/4 or L500 or such?
