You're probably right looking at the wheels, but I don't actually know that for sure.

I have got it as "Finned Roadster" the source says it is a nota 1172 I imagine this is for the ford sidevalve engine but also referes a Nota nš9 but It is from Australia.

Guy Buckingham returned to Australia in 1955, and the background suggests that's where this photo was taken. So I reckon it's around 1955/56, but it's surprising how little info is on the web about the older cars.

The station wagon in the back ground is an EK Holden (1961-62), so the photo has to be taken after that.
