1927 Pontiac Landau sedan (?)

Pretty new to cars so I might be wrong, but to me it look like it

Yep, 1928 got front brakes and a whole new chassis, with Hotchkiss drive.

And, right now you might be able to own one if so inclined?

Man I wish

 

Unfortunately I just don’t have the resources for that right now

 

But that’s definitely a goal in the future

I see it is on the, relatively uncommon, optional disc wheels. Our NZ assembled right hand drive one is also. Those wheels are different to those seen on contemporary Chevrolets. The Chevs use Baker wheels, the Pontiacs ones are by Motor Wheel. You can see the difference in the hub bolts. Unfortunately, our one lost its body a long time ago, but the various dated components suggest a mid/late 1926 date.

 

As an aside, after running with that British (Morris Minor maybe) steering wheel for quite a few years my other son decided that a proper one was in order and has just built one up this week - using the original spider which we had all along. Hopefully the next photo will have the good wheel.
