Not as well-known as these coachbuilders, but not obscure either.

Plachy ?
Yes. (That was the easy part! :)) Now locked for you to identify the chassis builder and brand name.

I have the build date as 1937, but it could have been completed earlier.

Yes, but it will be difficult to find without knowing the builder's name.

Is the name a Czech word ?

English word ?
The name is composed of two words. While both of these words are used in standard English, I believe each (and possibly even the combination of the two) is somewhat 'international' in nature and may be used in other European languages as well. I don't think they would normally be used in Czech, however, I don't speak Czech and could be wrong on this point.
