Wrong on both counts.

Wendax

I'm running out of Mercedes-Benz chassis with pointed radiators and spoke wheels. So was it built on a chassis usually featuring a flat radiator like Typ Nürburg?

Allemano

The model I'm looking for has a pointed radiator, but less pronounced and not every car of that series.
Keep on searching, you surely will find it

But we are talking about a car chassis, not a van chassis like L3/4 or L500 or such?

290?
Yes finally, but unfortunately that was the easy part of the puzzle.
