Let's try Belgian chassis with Dutch body.  How about 1928 Nagant by vanden Plas?
Yes, the coachbuilder is Van den Plas (the Dutch coachbuilder) and the chassis is Belgian...... ;)
LOCKED for you to pinpoint the chassis manufacturer, model and year.
1928 is slightly out and Nagant isn't the chassis builder......

1929 is correct but not an Imperia.
It's not an obscure make...... still locked for you

If it is not obscure, and Belgian, it's probably a Minerva.

Excelsior Albert Premier ? And are you sure about the fact that Van den Plas was Dutch ? I believe it was a Belgian coach builder (with a Dutch name)

Yes you are correct!
My mistake - this Van den Plas is the Belgian firm.....
It is an Excelsior Albert DHC by Van den Plas 1929.
One point to you.
