Looking at how the doors swing I would say a 1934-35 Studebaker

Ray B. · « **Reply #2 on:** March 30, 2008, 04:02:30 AM »

Not a Studebaker.

Is that an Aero?

Ray B. · « **Reply #4 on:** March 30, 2008, 06:03:12 AM »

Neither.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #5 on:** March 30, 2008, 06:33:47 AM »

Is it of Czech origin?

Ray B. · « **Reply #6 on:** March 30, 2008, 08:14:43 AM »

Much closer to you.

Much closer to you.

Correction: That car is both much closer and farther from where you live, according to this license plate.

Adler Diplomat ( 1936-40 )

Sorry, no.

Thank you for the fast responce...though I'm out of ideas. ( for now )
Is it an English make?

Ray B. · « **Reply #11 on:** March 30, 2008, 12:00:33 PM »

Not English. I might be more precise, but one week is a bit soon for clues.

Ray B. · « **Reply #12 on:** May 04, 2008, 06:40:54 AM »

Time for a clue:
Same brand, different body, same country.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #13 on:** May 04, 2008, 07:00:20 AM »

Fiat?

Ray B. · « **Reply #14 on:** May 04, 2008, 07:03:00 AM »

Not from Europe.

neilshouse · « **Reply #15 on:** May 06, 2008, 01:27:03 PM »

Is it of Japanese origin?

@re · « **Reply #16 on:** May 06, 2008, 02:59:06 PM »

Somehow related to the 1935-37 Toyota AA, perhaps?

Related neither to Toyota, neither to Japan anyway.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #18 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:06:35 AM »

Is it a Chevrolet?

Ray B. · « **Reply #19 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:14:37 AM »

Nope, but you're getting closer.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #20 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:30:01 AM »

Is it a GM brand?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #21 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:33:15 AM »

An Oldsmobile F.34 dubbed "Monterey"

Ray B. · « **Reply #22 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:39:34 AM »

Right!
I suppose now that you've found it where I did. These 2 body styles didn't exist in the 1934 American Oldsmobiles. What country is it from?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #23 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:43:47 AM »

Australia - it was constructed to drum up interest in Holden cars, I believe.

Ray B. · « **Reply #24 on:** May 18, 2008, 07:47:51 AM »

Thanks ! Well done.
