Default I thought I knew my Oldtimers

Take a look at this. 1964. At least two years before Aston Martin, Ferrari et al.

This is a Coupe S but 5 years before it was launched.

Proof Audi were (and are) ahead if the field

To my mind this is a missing link car that leads right up to the UR quattro

Mostly reminds me of a Porsche 356 / 911 with a hint of Audi.

Not sure about it, maybe just a poor translation sets a seed of doubt.

Seen it H, its a very rare twin carb Coupe S.

Most Coupe S were 112HP, but you could pay extra in the early days and get a twin carb that would give you 115HP. Wow!, so worth it!. It didn't last long, hence the rarity.

My guess is the Germans will be all over it very quickly
