AUDI Typ R "Imperator" (1927 - 1929)  As far as I can tell, coachbuilding was done in-house.

That's correct but I have the date of completion as 1930.
Probably due to the bodywork being constructed by an external firm.
I'll LOCK it for you until your next reply to come up with the coachbuilder.

There's a whole lotta stuff on the web regarding the Imperator Tourer, but the sedan or limousine model is pretty scarce as far as web-based info.  So I'm gonna give it my best guess of Neuss and see what happens.   ::)

Well, does 3:30 am count?  I'm a chronic insomniac, so I DO find myself awake in the middle of the night...I spose that's all part of the computer programmer stereotype: code all night, live on Twinkies, Szechuan chicken and cream soda.  Even in retirement, I find myself doing the same thing... although other stuff has replaced most of the coding.

Depends who you're competing against!
We have plenty of insomiacs over here too, but thankfully I'm not one of them..!
