Before the 2nd world war my grandfather was driver etc for a rich Dutch nobleman, Baron van Heeckeren van Kell. In his heritage we found this picture, and we are wondering what kind of car it is. It was placed at http://www.svvs.org/help16.shtml and identification should be a studebaker ca 1929. Other search showed that it seems rather similiar to the 1930 Studebaker Commander. Positive facts : 10 rod wheels , the layout of the backdoor and the shape of the back-wheel-thing. ( dont know the word ) Also the general looking is very familiar, except for the non-tilted windscreen. Possibly only available in the touring-model ? At another website it is told that it was not uncommon in those days to have another (special design) carosserie placed on the more expensive cars. Then it should be difficult to find all the details ( e.g. the opening direction of the doors ) For the size of the car : my grandfather was about 1.65 - 1.70 meter high . Any help is welcome roelo
