Yes, that's the car. I didn't know it used a Studebaker chassis. Sorry for my misleading answers. My source just said that it was self-built by Poul Lynghøj Olsen who was the owner of the Stensved Maskinværksted. The car was donated to the Egeskov museum. Its current whereabouts after the museum's closure are not known as far as I know.

Thank you for the point. I was so convinced it was a Studebaker that I kept on searching until I found it. My first guess was the  Shanghai Horse Bazaar & Motor Company, because they built a few similar bodied Studebakers, like the one in the picture below.
