Chassis:
Featured is a SSK racing car, fitted with the endurance racing version of the supercharged engines. It has a rich contemporary racing history in South America, where it was driven to many victories by Carlos Zatuszek. He was as well known for his racing successes as, as the amount of beer he drank at pit stops. After Zatuszek sold the car in 1935, it had several owners before being bought by Mercedes-Benz enthusiast Rolf Meyer.
The Zatuszek SSK is pictured here at a 2003 Artcurial auction, where the Rolf Meyer collection was offered for sale. He had passed away three years earlier. It exchanged hands for just over EUR3 million, the highest price payed for any car on auction in 2003.
