It's probably fiberglass (or maybe aluminium, I don't know for sure), though I would phrase it "based on a production car".

DKW by Welch ?

You're on to something there, so I'll lock it for you to be a bit more specific.

It's already been established by nicanary that the base was Auto Union rather than DKW, and the 1000 is right so it's an Auto Union 1000 SP Special.
The builder's surname was indeed Welsch and he was from Mayen in Germany, although I had the build date as slightly later.
So all we need now is his correct forename (not Günter).
Still locked for SACO.

As mentioned it's an Auto Union rather than a DKW, so the car's base is already established.
Just the builder's forename to get; not Kurt!
Still locked for you..
