A nice little roadster.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

Partly correct, but there is more to this car. Locked for you to find out at least the builder and the year it was built.

I know this is a DKW Front F2 Spezial Roadster, it belongs to Jørgen Skafte Rasmussen, grandson of the founder of DKW and that it is one of twenty cars he has loaned to the Chemnitz Industrial Museum. I can't find any more information about it, I can only try guessing it's the newer Reichsklasse from 1933.

You surely identified this car and you made the connection to the Rasmussen family. So I won't torture you with details. This DKW F2 Spezial Roadster was built for Hans Rasmussen, the son of the DKW founder Jørgen Skafte Rasmussen. The engine came from a DKW F1.

One more point for you.

Thank you for the point, even now knowing more about the car, I still can't find anything on the Internet.
