I've recently bought a low-volume book published by the Dutch Audi club,
which lists all (sic) special bodies and prototypes based on Audis and
DKWs. The Trapeze is not listed, but a lot of other oddities are. What do
you think of an UrQ stationwagon? or a helicopter powered by an Audi I5?
Or the 6-door Audi 200 Pullmann Limousine? Or the inane Treser Hunters,
based on jacked-up 4000s and 90s, with enormous plastic wheelarches and
roo-bars?
There are too many odd cars in this 51-page book to be mentioned. Pity it's
all black & white, with mostly bad repro quality.

 The function of an expert is not to be more right than other people,
         but to be wrong for more sophisticated reasons.
