Spyker alright, but no C4 from 1924. The answer isn't far.

The year is correct, and this is the name I had for it, so the point is yours. But I found it in a website in a language  unknown to me and I am not so sure of its exactness.
Since then, I found an other and more reliable name for the car. Can you find it?

I'll have a further look. I found this same picture on a Dutch website with "all car makes of the world", but this site is in English.

Both the Dutch (www.rijtuigen.net/koets/algfa-spijker.htm) and Japanese (http://blog.goo-net.com/chez2007/archive/192) sites I found the pic on, say it's an Aerocoque
(My Japanese is not too good :-) but GoogleTranslate gave me: The image of the aircraft in 1919, the styling or out of Aerocoque

I also found the same pic on www.autopasion18.com/HISTORIA-SPYKER.htm
