There are 3 pictures in the "Oswald - Kraftfahrzeuge und Panzer" - but I do not have a scanner here
I was quite surprised that the engine comes from the S.gl. Einh. PKW. (but has90hp) and the gear cases differ from the normal Horch 901! The technical data come from the same book:

  . . . . . . . . 901 . . . . . . . . . . Kabriolet

engine . . 3517ccm /80hp. . . . 3823ccm/90hp

Gear

Production 1940-1942

Would be nice to know the freshly renovated one really was a kabriolet originally and has those special parts.

Hallo Frankie,
The gearbox in the Kfz 21 was a ZF AK 4S30 (Synchro), different from the other 901.
The engine was a 3,8L the same as in Horch 108.
