The Melin books are must haves, Vol.2 is even more interesting w/ the known survivors chapter and the in-period photos.

I'd rather have an original Cab B than a fake Roadster. Its sad they are using an original frame for that, they could have built a 100% replica without destroying an original survivor.

Where is 189424 today?

Didnt this car come from the collection of Dr Bitgood in CT where the von Krieger longtail Roadster had also been for many years?

Im not aware of any further covered spare long tail Roadster other than the Warner car and ex-Mann car that came from Argentina originally, either.

Yes, most interesting auction since many years for MB. I think the estimate on the long tail covered spare wheel roadster is 11-12MM.

Has this car survivied?

Great find! Keep us posted about the resto!

I think that was 2006 when the Autobahn Kurier was premiered after it's resto. That was a baffling decision that it failed to win BOS at that time.

There has been some controversy if this great S was bodied by Buhne, Berlin or Gläser in Dresden, who did many fantastic Horch bodies. Has this been cleared up for the next auction?

Wow, this looks fantastic. I like the subtle 2 tone scheme. Where is this car today? I think the FL car museum where it once was decades ago has been defunct.

You mean this one? I dodnt realise it had the covered spare.

Where is the Afghanistan car today? You got a photo or S/N? You mean the JW story is a myth?

I think there are at least 2 500K cars by Windovers which are quite close in styling. One used to be in an Austrian car museum many years ago. Not sure if its the one that is sold. I agree its an attractive body, but obviously most want Sindelfingen body or a "big name" coachbuilder.

I know the ex Jack Warner car and the ex Sam Mann car which was originally delivered in Argentina are original covered spare wheel Roadsters. What is the 3rd surviving car?
