Rusty_OToole Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Looks English. It may be an artist's concept, not a real car. Where did you get it? Any ID at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Front wheel drive? A good place to post this would be on http://theoldmotor.com/?page_id=103770 I'm sure it could be ID'd there.

60FlatTop Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Chrome the grille shell and put wire wheels on it and you have a mid 30's Miller car, The details are pretty accurate otherwise. Clymer books are quite accurate, as well. It could be a real car that carried over some late '20's disc wheels by a driver who didn't like spokes but wanted the large diameter tires.I would say it is a real car that Clymer knew about and owned by someone who specified a dated car against Miller's recommendations.Bernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studemax Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Reminds me a lot of Phil Remingtons' dry lakes racer, but I don't think it actually depicts a known racecar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
