I know only the maker and the coachbuilder.  That's what I need to give you a point.

Well, this one is turning out to be more difficult than I expected, as I, incorrectly, was pretty sure that the coachbuilder was Hamshaw.  I guess that I still think the coachbuilder is British, although perhaps not as well known as first thought.  I'll try: Wolseley by Cockshoot.

Well, if the coachbuilder is not British, my first hunch, that this was an export (colonial) model, might be correct after all.  If this was a chassis exported to one of the Commonwealth coumtries, I will guess Australia, and thus an Australian coachbuilder.  Hence, I will try: Wolseley by G.H.Olding & Sons.

With Italy, France, Britain and the colonies ruled out, I guess that I will have to try the Low Countries. Wolseley by Pennock?

Not Pennock, but right country! I should unlock, but as you guessed the country I give you one chance more.

Thanks for the lock extension.  I trust I can profit from your generosity.  For my final chance I will go with a firm that has earned me past points, and say: Wolseley by Schutter & van Bakel.

Disregard my previous post, as I just located the answer.  The correct answer is: Wolseley (6 cyl.) by G. J. Donderwinkel of Doesburg, Netherlands.
