What happened with Erich Uberlacker?

Great Google capitulated. :/

Do you know something about his life after leaving to France in 1937?

Some rumour said Erich Überlacker worked in Citroen’s Buerau d’Etude in late 30s around future 2CV project.

He couldn’t survive wartime, as German Jew, I’m afraid.

Such genius engineer and designer should brighten after Second War somewhere.

Great thing!

It must be this car - Borgward-Traumwagen with aluminium body and boxer 6-cylinder engine.

I walked this way and found his biography on site:

(Sorry, folks. Forum's system blocks me complete URL)

Great thanks!
