Someone correct me if I am wrong, but is that a Rometsch (spelling) ?

They were coachbuilt in the 50's, similar rarity to a hebmuller if thats what it is.

THE STYLING is very similar to a number of vehicles styled by Frua, I would suggest you search google for Frua show cars etc
beauty is in the eye of the beholder, cars like these were the beginning of many successful trends & I think it is attractive
Please, I need drivers side window regulator (winder mechanism) for my '54

Yeah, I like the look of it, if it is indeed a Volovo! but being a M/C rider, Volvo is not one of my favorite cars, they seem to have a habit of bumping into things, not good.

It's a Beutler coachbuilt made in Switzerland around 1961. They mostly featured Porsche engines and were often referred to as Beutler Porsches, despite the Volkswagen chassis,

Next question?😀

Yeah they do come with porshe Badging
But I seriously doubt any made it to Australia and then If a few did the they would most likely have met with ill fate.
Bit it would be good to know!

Silly me
Should have realised a Volvo wouldn't show it's face at a VW meet! 🙁
