It looks like a Fiat 508 Balilla Giardiniera with an unusual body, but I suppose it can't be so easy so I'll try:
Polski Fiat 508?

The base is actually a Fiat 508, but not Polsky.

Professional time.

NSU Fiat perhaps?

Wendax · « **Reply #5 on:** June 07, 2013, 04:47:23 AM »

Or Simca-Fiat?

targhediferro · « **Reply #6 on:** June 07, 2013, 05:54:15 AM »

Actually I don't know, but I think the base car is a normal Fiat 508; is anyway possible it is a Simca-Fiat, while I would be surprised if the coachbuilder should have used a NSU-Fiat.

French coachbuilder?

targhediferro · « **Reply #8 on:** June 07, 2013, 10:51:03 AM »

Not French....what an emotion! It's my first post that lasts in the Pros section more than the time of an answer!

Well if Wendax doesn't know the answer then it must indeed be difficult, so it could last a little longer yet!

German coachbuilder

Allan L · « **Reply #11 on:** June 07, 2013, 02:05:55 PM »

I'd guess Belgian coachwork.

Wendax · « **Reply #12 on:** June 07, 2013, 02:53:11 PM »

How about a postwar bodywork from Switzerland?

targhediferro · « **Reply #13 on:** June 07, 2013, 05:19:39 PM »

Neither Belgian nor Swiss coachbuilder. Not a post-war job.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #14 on:** June 08, 2013, 05:08:01 AM »

British coachwork?

Swiss?

Italian?

targhediferro · « **Reply #18 on:** June 09, 2013, 01:14:29 PM »

Eh eh, sometimes the shorter way is the right one...but not this time. Not Italian.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #19 on:** June 09, 2013, 01:31:03 PM »

european coachwork??

targhediferro · « **Reply #20 on:** June 09, 2013, 05:10:49 PM »

Yes, European coachwork.

sixtee5cuda · « **Reply #21 on:** June 09, 2013, 06:46:40 PM »

Constructed before 1936?

targhediferro · « **Reply #22 on:** June 10, 2013, 01:21:56 AM »

Not before 1936.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #23 on:** June 10, 2013, 03:36:49 AM »

Czech coachwork?

targhediferro · « **Reply #24 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:48:07 AM »

Not Czech.
