You've got me stumped there.......... it's either a coachbuilt special, or a prototype, I suspect. It has some similarities to the Lagonda of the period, but it does not look quite like those cars.

I would guess late 1940s.

He's going to need help, too, I think........... Google has not yet turned up any clues.

I'm gonna guess dead Germans now.

DKW?

I didn't notice your first post.  Late '40s is close.  You might call it a coachbuilt special.

A Scandinavian car? I only know of Volvo, Saab or Scania.

It's not German or British.


Dutch perhaps? Is it a DAF?

It is not DAF but country of origin is The Netherlands.

Ok, it's not a Donkervoort or Spyker. That's clear. And it's not a "Volvo of Holland" car either.

I know of only one Dutch brand that might have been around at that time.

BRONS?

Not a BRONS.  As previously mentioned, a 'coachbuilt special' so it is not, necessarily, a brand.  Keep looking.
