Your color photo doesn't have a DB engine.

Nobody was saying that the b/w or colour photos were the DB605 equipped conversion Kutscha. With regards the often listed eBay b/w photos, from the link in my previous post:

"Looks to me like the HA-1109 KIL when it was displayed at Uetersen near Hamburg. In 1988 it was rebuilt to G-2 standard using a DB recovered off Sardinia. Now on display at the Luftwaffen Museum Gatow."

The colour shot posted by David above and also posted via the same link shows this example pre-1988 before its conversion...
