It's an Opel Blitz from the mid to late 1950s.

I believe it was known as a Panorama because of the transparent panels in the roof.

It was built on the 1.75 tonne truck chassis by Kässbohrer Fahrzeugwerke at Ulm from 1953 to 1956.

Welcome to the forum.

Must just say, the rear suspension looks suspect!

Air suspension perhaps?
