Who knows this car?

1 point for the technical basis and the driver/builder

No, but there is a significant technical parallel to a swedish car.

LOCKED for you!

You have a very good eye - it is indeed a DKW special.
But I need some additional information about the driver/builder to award you a point

Is it described as Auto Union as opposed to DKW based?

Well, I can´t find any photo of a "M49 Sportcoupé" in the internet. Maybe you can prove your guess?

I only have a driver´s name at an austrian racing event and the engines capacity.

So I´ll lock it for you and wait, Wendax.

Do you mean Pininfarina (see above) or are you thinking about the similarity to the Baur bodies?

Is sleuthing going on in private, via PM, to preclude others from benefiting from what might otherwise be posted publicly?  :scratch:
