It's highly unlikely, but was this Mercedes-based?

A belated thank you for the Lock. I’m rather struggling with this one. Was it an Eigenbau?

Definitely not Autenrieth, but I don't know the coachbuilder.

it was not a one-off. Was it a relatively known workshop like Tornax?

I didn't say that it wasn't a one-off. I just agreed that it wasn't an Eigenbau (i.e. a privately built one-off). Nothing to do with Tornax.
