Ray Garcia 16 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Here is another from my unknown file. Just as the previous file, I have no information on this whatsoever. The car has cooling doors on top of the hood midline. I thought maybe a very late McFarlan, but can match this up to one. Link to post Share on other sites

edinmass 12,704 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) 1931 Cadillac 355A Club Sedan by Fisher. 100 percent certain. With a strange grill and hood. I have owned three of them. Valance, hood, and cowl boxed in. Ugly, and poorly done. Edited November 5, 2020 by edinmass (see edit history) 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Harwood 12,259 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 (edited) How'd they get that sidemount tire in there (which doesn't even seem to be mounted to the wheel)? Agree that it's a '31 Cadillac. Edited November 6, 2020 by Matt Harwood (see edit history) Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Garcia 16 Posted November 6, 2020 Author Share Posted November 6, 2020 I agree, a terrible way to treat a Cadillac. I kept going away from my first guess, which was LaSalle as those darned top vents kept me thinking non-GM Link to post Share on other sites
