The story is here:
http://www.autobild.de/klassik/artikel/neumann-vw-traumauto-der-ddr-2316953.html
it was handmade on a Kübelwagen-basis by a private coachbuilding-craftsman and his two sons.
There were some more of such cars existing in the DDR. Two years ago there was an exhibition in a museum in East Germany about that. Quite a lot of these cars have survived.
Also interesting in this article is a sentence, that the profession of this little family-owned coachbuilder-craftmanship (such little private companies stayed allowed along the whole DDR-lifetime) were the restoration of car-wrecks and the making of special bodywork on Wartburg- and Dacia-basis.
So maybe they are the makers of the two, three Dacia 1300-based Hearses, which existed in the DDR!
