The Porsche Typ 64 was created on the chassis of a Volkswagen Typ 60 (the later VW "Beetle").
It was built for the race "Berlin - Rom" and to promote the "KdF-Wagen" (Kraft durch Freude = strength through joy).
Three were built with this streamline body but only one survived until today.
The VW Typ 60 K10 // Porsche Typ 64 was the archetype for the later Porsche 356, Ferdinand Porsche
took some ideas from it for his first own car.
