Can you ID the car in this old photo?

As both Studebaker and Apperson were in Indiana, I wonder if the same maker supplied their tops. Stude called them Duplex. Was that the maker's name or just a descriptive word for them?

I think it was a descriptive word meaning "rain or shine" or two uses.

Interesting Headlights for that era. Are these OEM or after market Headlights ? The double white walls are a different touch for that time period also.

I believe those headlights are original equipment.

The double WWW tires are also interesting, especially since many enthusiasts consider them taboo on a pre-Depression car....

I think Duplex was a manufacturer's name for the "all-weather" top... the term "California Top" is the "Generic" name I have always seen attached to them.
