Barry, I think that's a 1937 Graham, possibly with a European-built body, as indicated by the trafficators. Those hood louvers are pretty distinctive, aren't they?
And yes, I'd say that's a very rare car!!

I see the funeral notice (but it is actually posted upside down).... At the bottom (across the top of the upside down notice), it has a Cardomain.com logo.

1937 Graham I don't think that there's a single panel or piece of trim on that car that came from a 1937 Graham, except for the louvers and possibly the "Supercharged" badge. ( Maybe the horns and the relocated door handles.) It looks like a full custom to me, styled after the Graham. Possibly done on a 1960's chassis based on the apparent wheel size.

Dave, the car does seem to have a custom body, and in fact, there looks to be a coachbuilder's plate behind the fender and in front of the door. It could certainly be a modern creation. I'm no Graham expert but seem to recall that Graham chassis were used for custom coachwork during this time period in England and possibly other European countries.
Barry, where'd you snag this picture? Looks like some kind of organized tour, based on the banner between the front bumper guards on the Graham (as well as on the following car, as best I can tell).

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art.
