Here it is, my puzzle #1000! When I started posting puzzles I wouldn't have thought that there will be so many.  ;D

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

Looks like the steering is on the left, D-type.
Perhaps Russian??

The grille looks odd like its missing something.
Did you alter it?

Just a little bit by deleting a tell-tale emblem, but no alterations to shape, size or colour of the grille.

It looks like a modified Fiat 2300.

Is it a proposal for a Spanish Seat version of a Fiat?

Borgward proposal?
In a certain way. Locked for you to find out more about it.

Perhaps a proposal for a Hansa 2400 six cylinder saloon?

The car is a modified Borgward Isabella due to a car dealer, Walter Schätzle from Oberhöchstadt, a village in Hesse, Germany.

What to do now? This topic was locked for richard cuyler when Jean Marie H answered, but I would have opened it up after richard cuyler's wrong guess. I think I will give the point to the one of these two who first answers the following questions correctly:
- When was this car built?
- Where did the headlamps come from?
- Which car did the rear styling resemble?
- Which car did Walter Schätzle build later on?

LOCKED for richard cuyler and Jean-Marie H.

Sorry Wendax, I had not seen it so I let Richard and give him the point if he answers to your questions.     :huh:
