I would know those wheels anywhere, as there is a picture of them on the wall of my office.  Do any other members of the MAX 400 club recognize this one?

I have this one two ways, one as a 1927 Studebaker Six rebodied in 1936 by Hartmann of Switzerland.
The other, a model presentation, says it is a  Studebaker as well but from 1935 and some details differ a little.

Photo is below.  I will go with the first answer.

And the point goes to Bill Murray for the complete answer. 

It is so strange to me, that so many one-off cars are represented by scale models.
