    We do hang at the same places. Enough ugly for now. Here's one that's easier on the eye:

    None of the above. :(

    I think this is going to be a tough nut to crack. Major kudos to whoever solves it.

    And by the way, the pic was pulled off the web, so it's out there. Of course, the hard part is recognizing enough to know where to look.

    Sindlefingen elements, and wb really long for anything less than a 770.
    Still, can't tell if those are artillery wheels or painted wires.
    If not MB, eastern or western Europe?

    Not MB. Artillery wheels, not wires. Car and coachbuilder from different countries - one of the two Western European, the other not. Also, one now defunct, the other not.

    Good guesses, but it's neither Duesenberg nor Sodomka.

    By the way, a helpful tip for identifying official Sodomka photographs from the 1930s is that the cars were often photographed at the Church of St. Lawrence in Vysoke Myto. :)

    That's who built the Horch body they were thinking of, and it looks close...

    Neither car nor coachbuilder nor background are French. :)

    I tried looking last night for possibilities of 1935 Lasalle, Nash (Ambassador chassis) or Studebaker (President chassis) roadsters to no avail.
    It will be very interesting to know what the subject car is, when someone finally guesses!

    Artillery wheels and lwb makes me think CG but too old, perhaps M16? Not Caddy. Packard 12 also option, but based on wheel size even that WB isn't big enough.
    Background hint but lost on me.
    German coachwork I think, Sindelfingen, you didn't say no.

    Coachwork not German, not Austrian, not French. :)
