@ pguillem and Hiawatha: To avoid misunderstandings: The builder was unknown, but had help from a fairly well known coachbuilder.

Looking for visual similarities. Is this well-known coachbuilder Vetter ?

sichel

Not Vetter. The similarities with the products of the professional coachbuilder are limited.

I was referring to this Magirus-Deutz

sichel

Yes, the windscreen looks similar, but the rest...

No more guesses here.

There are still many areas in Germany that have not been searched...  For a better understanding: The result was teamwork between the customer and the coachbuilder. The frame was designed and constructed together and then built by the customer. Then this skeleton was driven to the coachbuilder!!! where it was sheet metaled, glazed and painted.
