Yes indeed, that's the one.
Herr Scheithauer lived in Mannheim-Neckerau and made a pretty good job if it by the looks of the photo.
Well done.

It must have been built in the 1950s, as this picture appeared in a 1960 issue of auto motor und sport. Its builder wrote a letter to the editor and told that the car had already covered 180,000 km (~110,000 miles). It had a fiberglass body and weighed only 640 kg.
