Frank M. Rinderknecht aka RINSPEED, the Swiss car visionary in a portrait for SMAC magazine – photos by CHRISTOF SCHMIDT

Swiss photographer CHRISTOF SCHMID had the honor of shooting a portrait for an interview in SMAC magazine. In front of his camera: Frank M. Rinderknecht, a car visionary, better known as RINSPEED. Core areas of the RINSPEED company: car customizing, manufacture as well as the production of prototypes alongside small and special series. The company regularly causes quite a sensation at the Geneva Motor Show with its spectacular concept vehicles.

In 1979, Frank M. Rinderknecht, born on 24 November, 1955, in Zurich, founded his company so that he could buy moped parts at a lower price. This marked the birth of an enterprise which subsequently developed from a sunroof importer to a representative of AMG (1982) and AC Schnitzer (1988). GoSee: rinspeed.eu
