nzcarnerd Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Bears a resemblance to an Oldsmobile but I don't think it is. More like something form Europe when they were borrowing styling influences from the US. elegant man driving old car DeSoto (?)

Note on the Pontiac the hood louvres are on a raised panel. On the mystery car they are not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunsmoke Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Olds, Pontiac and LaSalle used a cowl sweep like shown, but all had 3 hinge back doors, and Pontiac an oval rear window. Looking closely at photo, I'm beginning to think the curved cowl molding is in fact a cable housing for one of the accessory lights/sirens, and is not a car feature. If so, then car identification should be a lot easier. including a 1930 or 1931 something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
