Who knows this car?

One point only for:
- the correct make of the chassis
- AND the correct coachbuilding company.

Mercedes Benz 16/45hp from 1921
About the coachbuilder, is it Peirre Barbou?
Hmmm...I think he was the customer, a Flieger Oberleutnant.
I'll have to read all that article again...is it 'Progress' the name?

Wow!

Yes - this Mercedes 16/45PS chassis has a bodywork executed by the "Progreß" Automobilwerke in Zürich for Mr. Barbou in 1921.
