This guy looks happy. Wouldn't we too, after a ride in this car?

For one point please respond and identify this car, the year and the coachbuilder.

The coachbuilder (which I asked for) was Johannes Rudy. The design of the body was heavily inspired by the Wanderer W25 Stromlinie Spezial (https://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2011-39/puzzle-160-solved!-wanderer-streamline-special/) which isn't very surprising when you know that August Momberger, prewar head of Auto Union's race department, was the founder of Inka (Ingeieurs-Konstruktions-Arbeitsgemeinschaft). The Borgwarg Hansa 1500 Typ Inka was just built for the record drives at Montlhéry in August 1950 and never raced otherwise.
