B 1000 Z by Drettmann
Checking my source once again, I think, the correct designation should be:
Borgward Typ .. (two letters) on Borgward B1000 chassis
Coachbuilder?
Early post-war-period

That would suggest that it is a Borgward made body on the B1000. Either that, or the two letter code refers to the coachbuilder's own designation. Is the coachbuilder from the Bremen area? :)

No, not Bremen area  ;)
It is a Borgward type in the Borgward-range with bodywork manufactured at a coachbuilder

To avoid misunderstandings, the designation comes from Borgward or from Hall?
