Another car to ID

[gwells]

I've been asked to ID this vehicle and I feel like I should know what it is, but that European plate makes me nervous. Anyone sure what car this is?

I would say 1929 DeSoto.

Gee, that took five minutes. 

 

Good job, Keiser31!

He don't mess around when it comes to Chrysler products. 

 

I'm guessing he has that new app on his phone that instantly notifies him whenever a new What IS IT hits the forum  

In all seriousness though, Keiser never seizes to amaze.

 

Kudos @John!

I wish we had a better look at the radiator emblem, it looks like the angle goes from top left down to the bottom right. 

Is it possible that exports had a different emblem, John?

I wish I had an app. I don't even have a cellphone. The badge may just show a reflection. I think the only badges that may have been different are the Canadian badges, but just say CANADA in very small letters at the bottom of the badge. I could certainly be wrong about that.

Just to tie up the loose end, my co-worker who requested the ID indicates the images were found in an antique shop, so no background on them is available.

 

Can anyone ID the country where such a license plate was used?

Bit of a WAG, but a little research suggests it is a Norwegian plate.

Our '29 DeSoto has a serial number of OW664L and was assembled in Canada.  

 

Apology for the poor photo.
