1953 Dannenhauer & Stauss Sport-Cabriolet 2+2-seater with retractable top

The almost unkown missing link between Volkswagen and Porsche. Its chassis comes from the Beetle, the front is reminiscent of the 356. Gotthilf Dannenhauer, Co-founder of the Stuttgart coachbuilder Dannenhauer & Stauss Karosserie, has been previously employed at Reutter Karosseriebau, which was at that time body supplier for Porsche. The bodies of the D & S Convertibles were handcrafted from metal by hand by using a wooden form. Also the complete upholstery work and painting was done by Dannenhauer himself. That took about 800 to 1000 working hours per vehicle.

While an export Beetle cost 4600 Deutsch Mark in 1953, the Dannenhauer & Stauss sports convertible cost an impressive 8892 DM. Due to this high price and the extremely difficult procurement of chassis, estimated only about 80 to 120 of these beautifully designed luxury Beetles were built between 1951 and 1954. Not only Volkswagen opposed the use of their chassis and refused to supply them. Porsche also took legal action against Dannenhauer & Stauss because some Porsche components were used. Just 19 vehicles are believed to have survived, twelve of them have been restored. Here's one. You probably don't get to see many more.

Porsche Type 60 Concept V3 - 1936 (replica)

Replica - the original model was destroyed after the tests.

The Volkswagen V3 prototype made by Porsche was the model ultimately used for the Beetle concept.

In 1935/36, Porsche built various Volkswagen prototypes with different engine concepts. Test car n°3 (V3) was found to be most suitable and was used for the first comprehensive road tests.
