This is obviously modified but in the midst of a pandemic I thought it might be allowed.  This is from a "Jigsaw site".  Ford, Model A Woodie  perhaps.

Looks more like a customized 1932 Chevrolet with a painted radiator shell to me. No cowl tank like a Model A.

Now I feel real dumb, me a GM lover missed the obvious.  Thank you keiser31.  By the way except for my 1930 Custom Sedan I left GM behind in 1974.  Toyota took first place until 1987 when Hyundai took over.  I have driven most of the GM's made since 1974 owned by employers but would not own one myself.

It could also be built upon one of those 1970's Glassic Industries "reproduction" model "A" Fords. It has that look of a replicar of that era- 

 The slightly "off" tires  because the track & wheelbase of the suspension doesnt quite match the flow of the fenders.

 

Despite what you may think about the finished product, that creation took alot of skill, work and love!

 Whatever it is, I like that.  I would drive and enjoy.

Might be a Shay.  Check out shayhistory.com.  The wheels are what are pointing me in that direction.  They're not VW and not period correct for '20's.

Nope - Glassic made only phaetons and roadsters and a couple prototype coupes and pickups.

Nope - Shay made only roadsters, roadster pickups, a few C-cab panel trucks, and T-Birds.  When Shay went bankrupt, Camelot bough them out and added a phaeton to the line.

Also nope.

 

It's a kit car.  Here's a window version on an S-10 chassis:

 

I remember the kits but don't recall the name of them or the company that made them.  Also don't remember when they were available - probably 70s or 80s.
