What was the basis for this bodywork (this should be the simple part) and who designed it?

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

Good idea, because you can't see it from the front. But the puzzle trolley doesn't come from Brazil.

So it is a German DKW 3=6 Universal resp. an Auto Union 1000 Universal (hard to tell the difference from behind) with an unusual tailgate. Done by a German designer?

Yes it is a DKW Universal, built by a German coachbuilder. Locked for three attempts to name it.

Please be patient, I'm in Sweden right now, far away from my books. So an appropriate answer will take a little more than a week.

For sure, but it is not that bad, mostly between 1 and 8°C, but the wind can get nasty. 🥶
