A real classic.

For one point, please respond and identify this car, the year it was built and its coachbuilder.

1926 MERCEDES BENZ 630K Open Sports Tourer by Knibb & Parkins ? (though at first claimed to be Barker, then Park Ward by a selling English dealer). It was shown on the 2006 Retromobile in Paris.

That's the car. I didn't know about the Knibbs & Parkyn (I think that's the right spelling) connection. I found it in an old dealer ad where the coachbuilder is claimed to be Parker (perhaps a compromise between Barker and Parkyn  :D ). I trust your expertise and award you another point.  :thumbsup:
