A not everyday body.
Who built it? What was the basic vehicle?
One point for the correct answer.
Ein Henschel zieht am Berg und ein Mercedes
an den Türen. (and an attempt of a translation):
A Henschel in rushing up the hill, wheras in a Mercedes wind is rushing through the doors. c/o norberthanke

Is the base vehicle a Bugatti?

It looks like the Friederich Type 40 body, but it isn't - the door's smaller and there's a rear window. Nor is it the later recreation which was sold a couple of years back. In other words, I don't know . . .
The more I consider the nature of speed, the more mysterious I find it.
