It looks one of the several attempts of the Sizaire Freres from France to imitate the Rolls Royce. In this case may be a Sizaire-Berwick.

No, sorry, it isn't a Sizaire-Berwick. Although I do think the radiator was a copy of a Rolls-Royce.

The Belga Rise, also related to the Sizaire Freres used a radiator copied from RR. Could it be that?

No sorry, I hadn't heard of a Belga Rise before, I had to look it up, very interesting.

This car isn't French, or Belgian.

Another irritation of the RR was the English Windsor.

Yes, that's the one. Another point for you. Apparently there were 500 made, and only about 10-12 remain.

From what I've seen, the Rolls-like grill was adopted after 1918.

We've had other Australian Six cars before. Merge worthy?

That would be a good idea, keep them all together.
