I am impressed!

BTW, it is probably a 8/35 PS, but I'm not sure.

Thanks Gerd.  It was tough with no picture, and I didn't find the ad, although, now that I see it, I'm pretty sure that I have seen it before.  I also think that it is most likely an 8/35, assuming that it is '22, or later.  I believe the only alternative is the 6-cyl. 16/72, and the hood doesn't look long enough to fit the longer engine.

Now if I can just figure out "Rust Still Doesn't Sleep".

Interesting picture.  Even though this picture is of a competition car, it makes me wonder if the ad illustration isn't a concept for the 6-cyl. 16/72.  I understand that few, if any, 6-cyl. were produced, so perhaps the ad drawing was trying to drum up business for the larger car which may not have existed, in hardware form, at the time of the ad.
