Brother of the VW Beetle

Documenting travel. It's a 1937 Mercedes-Benz Coach Decouvrable Type 170 H. The car's similarity to the Volkswagen Beetle is no accident, as both were designed by Ferdinand Porsche.

Seen at the Cité de l'Automobile museum in Mulhouse, France.

@jamibann These days it would certainly turn heads when driven on the road. Unfortunately, it's too rare for that to happen.
