Fidelity body on a circa 1920 Chevrolet? The ads of the period used small people to make the cars look larger.

Continental Motors Company engine?

1950 Buick Special has a two piece windshield. The 1950 Buick Super & Roadmaster have a one piece windshield.

The Pontiac Silver Streak is a six cylinder model. The eight cylinder model has the number "8" incorporated into the script design.

I would like to revise the year of the Model T, from my earlier post, to a circa 1920 Ford Model T.

Circa 1922 Ford Model T.

Could be a circa 1916 Packard Twin Six (long hood).

This circa 1927 low resolution image, from a Franklin brochure, shows that they offered a similar body design a few years before the unknown car.

Many of the features of the unknown car match a 1929 Stutz Model M. Note that the unknown car appears to have parking lights in the same location as the Model M. The Model M pictured does not have the same body, but otherwise seems to be a good match to the unknown car. My guess is that the unknown car is a Stutz Model M with a custom body or a limited production of a factory offered body.

Pictured is Tom Mix in his Duesenberg Model A turtle back roadster. The design of the car's body is similar, but not identical to the unknown car. The unknown car is clearly not a Duesenberg Model A and also a few years newer. I believe the body for the Tom Mix Duesenberg Model A was made in Los Angeles.

The wheels & step plate location on the unknown car don't match a Packard. The body of the unknown car appears to be a sort of speedster design, sometimes referred to as a turtle back design.

I hope this factory picture helps. You could scale the picture to obtain an estimated white wall width.
