The manufacturer and type of the base vehicle should be easy to clarify. But who made this Pullmann body and when was it manufactured?
Ein Henschel zieht am Berg und ein Mercedes

A Henschel in rushing up the hill, wheras in a Mercedes wind is rushing through the doors. c/o norberthanke

Yes, it is an Opel Admiral, but not from Hebmüller. Compare the line of the third window.

Yes, it's an Opel Admiral Pullmann sedan, built by Hornig in 1938, and thus your next point.
