The car is not austrian but it most probably is a one-off...

Although called an AFM, this wasn't made by  Alex von Falkenhausen Motorenbau was it?

I guess it is (at least the chassis) made by Alex von Falkenhausen.

Agreed - I think this is not the original AFM-body.

The only AFM part in this car is the engine, a 1100 cc Fiat-based engine which Alex von Falkenhausen supplied quite a few drivers with.
