A different kind of puzzle, as the base vehicle is easy to find.

For one point, please respond and identify this vehicle, especially its purpose.

The base vehicle seems to be a DKW Schnellaster, late 40s to early 60s. (1957 P2 Taunus 17M ahead of it, so perhaps mid 50s?). Was it a transporter for sheets of glass?

Wendax

You are right about the base, but the purpose was a completely different one.

Not for paintings, but you are right about the weather protection.

Shoes and clothing?
I note the drop-down curtains for weather protection too.

The Ford's numberplate is "B" for Berlin! Possibly a hint

Skis are not of use in Berlin, I tried the number - no answer
