Given that Bill Murray posted a very similar body on a Mercedes-Benz, I'm thinking probably Austro-Daimler would make the most sense?

That's it!
I don't know the exact model. As I feel generous today, I think it is a good idea to give a point each to Bill Murray and el_monty.

Thanks. I certainly agree that Bill Murray deserved a point, since he did the heavy lifting for this puzzle.

Hi All!!

Thanks to Gerd and El-Monte for the nice words and the sharing of the point.

I still intend to pursue this one as I think I still have some Hungarian and Austro-Daimler sources hidden somewhere in my archives under the wrong name or out there on the net somewhere.

Bill 
Cheers
Bill

I'm happy for that decision. I remembered the Mercedes puzzled here before with its distinctive grille and I looked for Austrian car bodied by Zupka Lajos, but with no success.  Nothing is more frustrating that the pure guessing game. 

BTW, do you have the unretouched image ?
