History
After the war DKW had to restart car production without its pre-war body works. For the F10 it used the F8 running gear and a new two-door cabriolet body built by Karosserie Baur in Stuttgart.
Only 22 new F8 chassis reached Baur in 1949, and most of the rest were rebuilt from damaged pre-war cars. The official F10 run ended in August 1950, when the F89 took over. Baur kept building F10 bodies for older F8 chassis until about 1952, and IFA in East Germany later built 150 cars on Baur's design rights.
