When you look at car design from that time- lots of swoopy, big flowing curves (the 1930's and into '40's really was the art deco period of car design) it's easy to see, in a time of great experimentation, the influences and where the Type 64 comes from. Dr. Porsche was a 'push the envelope' kind of guy!
Quite often I agree with the (somewhat) more staid, and even curmudgeonly opinions expressed here but I've always loved this car because it was 'so (almost too) out there'.
What Kevin said x 3- you hit the nail on the head, dude!

So it's really a Volkswagen with a Porsche badge.
Maybe Sotheby's is selling it because the ad got pulled from eBay.
Ok, Mitch, that was the laugh of the day!
