Former Swiss automobile manufacturer
The Enzmann 506 is a Swiss automobile manufactured from 1957 until the late 1960s (some sources claim 1969 as the final year). The company purchased new Volkswagens, unbolted the Beetle body shells from the floorpans, and refitted them with fiberglass bodywork produced by a boatyard in Grandson. Some 100 cars were produced, and customers could also buy separate fiberglass bodies to make the assembly themselves.2 It was founded by Emil Enzmann.1 It ceased to exist in 1968.1 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
