A M. Kopf raced a single DTM race in 1987 with another 75 TE.

The ATN/Nickel car for Kurt Thiim is one we haven't heard much about- found a nice wallpaper-sized pic of it though...

Looking at 1987 DTM results, as you say, Thiim and the ATN team had a tough season with the Alfa- they seem to have had some kind of delay with the project, as Thiim appears to have turned out for the first DTM round in ATN's 1986 Rover.
Anything known about the Kopf car mentioned? It only appeared once, right at the end of the season
