An Opel Rekord "Kiemencoupé"?

We came across this photo in the archive while searching for pictures for the historical test of the Opel Rekord B . It shows an Opel Rekord A coupé - but not the standard version with the almond-shaped rear side window, but a previously unknown variant of the Kadett coupé roof structure. The unusual combination is remotely reminiscent of the 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback.
Unfortunately, however, the old photograph does not reveal any more than can be seen and stylistically associated here. The back is yellowed, but otherwise flawless: no inscription, no date taken, no other clues - nothing. The lone rear-view mirror on the left mudguard at least suggests that it is a Swiss vehicle. Who knows more?
