Formel V, 1965, FormCar. Driver, among others: Rainer Braun

Thanks for the point. My source has not been clearly assigned the vehicles to the pictures.
Auwärter is always good for a surprise.

As fromwien kindly pointed out the caption at the Auwärter exhibition is wrong. So this is a FormCar after all...

Sorry

Additional info: One of the easiest parts -despite the distinctive bodywork-looks- how to identify a Formcar, is its characteristic small petrol tank on the right-hand-side in front of the gear-lever. See frame-picture without bodywork and cockpit-picture added to this mail.
