Just a model without commercial background.

For one point, please respond and identify the base car and the person involved.

You are right about Wunibald Kamm, but wrong about the base car.

No. Look at the basic body lines which were kept when the aerodynamic parts were added.

Yes, this wind channel model was built at FKFS (Forschungsinstitut für Kraftfahrwesen und Fahrzeugmotoren Stuttgart), reputedly under participation of Wunibald Kamm. It must have been one of his last works, as he died in 1966. Base car was the DKW F 102 which later on was developed to become the first post-war Audi.

Another point to you (coming closer again  :D ).
