When the running board becomes a sitting board.

For one point, please respond and identify this car and its coachbuilder.

It is a Lancia, but not an Astura.

Locked for you to find out more.

Must be a Dilambda. I can't find the puzzle's car, so here is a wild guess for the coachbuilder : Nagy Géza.

It is a Lancia Dilambda, but the coachwork is not by Géza Nagy.

Locked for one more try.

The closest I could find is a Dilambda by Voll & Ruhrbeck...

Mudguard mounted side light seem to indicate it's a British body, maybe James Young?

Found one that is close, although it seems a different car.

1930 Dilambda by Neuss?

Bill
Cheers

You are right, it is a different car. The body is not by Neuss.
