19 May 2020, Saxony, Chemnitz: Frieder Bach (l), collector and restorer of vintage cars, and Dirk Schmerschneider from the Museum of Saxon Vehicles, push the last and brand new DKW F9 sports car into the museum in Chemnitz. Bach brought the vehicle to life based on a drawing from 1940, which he had discovered by chance during research for an exhibition in the Museum of Saxon Vehicles. It was the sketch for the last sports car that DKW, then under the umbrella of Auto Union, wanted to build. The vehicle was originally to take part in the Berlin - Rome race in 1938, but the war prevented it from being produced. More than 75 years later, the car was now built, with the help of the Fraunhofer Institute IWU, which used a special sheet metal forming process to produce the key parts for the streamlined body. The racing car will be on display in the exhibition “Fix voran mit Frontantrieb - 90 Jahre DKW-Rennwagen“. Photo: Hendrik Schmidt/dpa-Zentralbild/dpa、クレジット:DPA/共同通信イメージズ
