One from the two-stroke diesel series? Those are the most interesting ;-)

Yes!
With their characteristic noise. They certainly livened up the first truck races in Europe.

I heard them in the late 80s at the Setra factory in Ulm. They were installed in export versions for the USA. Well, I'll keep looking then.

Willème went bankrupt in 1970, and Beliet began production of the KB 2400 cab in the same year. So there wasn't much overlap. My guess: a one-off, a prototype with  DD12V-149 engine.
