Nice idea! Not Gläser, but thinking about a coachbuilder that somehow fits in there should lead you further.

The amphibious vehicle didn't have a Golf GTI engine, and the connection is a different one.

BTW, all locks lifted for the last remaining combinations.

Yes again, the car is said to be from 1955. It looks a bit older though.
