LOCKED for jimjarron

This car is a 1921 LaFayette.  134 may be the model #, I was looking for the name of the body style.

If it's the body style you're after, isn't this type normally referred to as a Victoria?

Many images of the 1921 LaFayette have 3 words under the black and white image, describing this body type.  Not looking for "Victoria".

Still LOCKED for JimJarron

Perhaps you're looking for "Four Door Coupe" then.  Rather odd to call a four door car a coupe, but they're not the only ones to have done it - there was a four door "coupe" Rover P5B, although I digress....

That is the answer I was looking for.  I objected when I saw Mercedes-Benz calling a "sleek" 4-door sedan a coupe, but I had no idea there was a precedent for this naming convention, from 1921.

One point to jimjarron for the correct answer.
