SOLVED: si_515 - Horch - 930 S Streamline - 1946-1948

A natural accessory, right?
Which car does it belong to? Manufacturer? Model? Year of manufacture?

Horch 930S from 1946/47. Three were build from remaining parts. One of these was rebuild/restored as the '1939', now with the parts pictured in your puzzle.

...hermanato is absolitly right. So he will get his next point.
It is said that four more copies were ordered for 1948. But whether they were actually built????

I did.  :D

Two Horch 930 S were built in 1939 (https://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2011-39/whaddyacallit-420-horch-930s) and seven after the war.
