Isn't it a French post-war rebody of a Mercedes-Benz 540 K?

Just browsed through my files to add the exact name of the coachbuilder: Fréjat, from Pont-du-Château, Puy-de-Dôme, France.
The car was rebodied in 1948, and is still extant today.

Not only integrated headlights, but also less chrome. That's a pity the original style was altered during a restoration. :(
