This car is an example of a make usually associated with upright Vintage tourers, but as this photo of this car appears in many of the books, identification should be quick and easy .. . .

OK, it was a more upright one bought secondhand and rebodied for the 1933 London Motor Show

Hmm, the photo was taken in the '60's since there is a Farina Cambridge in the background. Could it be by any chance a Riley?

Yes probably around that time: but not a Riley

Nor a Singer

Not a Wolseley

Humber

Not a Humber - not British in fact.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #12 on:** June 02, 2007, 06:47:27 AM »

Alfa?

Allan L · « **Reply #13 on:** June 03, 2007, 03:15:10 PM »

Not an Alfa, but closer than one might expect.

Is it a Fiat of some kind?

nor that

the brand still survives (making commercial vehicles) I think (or it did until very recently).
