From the size of the ppl in relation to the size of the car I'd say maybe a Batom.

did you mean Bantam? too big to be a Bantam. no 4 door Bantams IIRC. very interesting headlights... late '20's but not newr than '33 or '34 if American made.

Well I know next to squat about late twenties- early thirtees cars, but I would guess it is part of the "Ford" family, so I'm thinking maybe a Mercury, or a Lincoln?

I don't know what it is, but I'd be willing to bet that the paint job is not original. I don't think they even had invented that shade of purple back then! :)

I have no idea if my guess is right but some of you guys are way off!!! :lol: Jaguar didn't exist back then. Well they did but they were called Swallow and just made motorcycle sidecars. Ford or Lincoln -NO! Dodge- No! Nash - not! Fiat -hardly.

Aaron?...........Aaron?

sorry guys I had class today :lol:, but andy has it almost right so far:

Late 20s -early 30s Willys? The radiator shell and hood look like it. The headlights don't match the car. They look like teens or early 20s.

I forget the exact year but it is a mid-late 20's FIAT taken at the Cirellis Open House Car Show this past June 7. Besides I said "it looks a lot like" and "I'll GUESS"

So your know-it-all statement and attitude may not be as well deserved as you seem to think.

Touchy are we? :D The car Aaron posted is not a FIAT. I stated that and I was right so I guess I know something, dude! ;) In fact I do know a lot. Certainly not everything, but I do have a broad range of knowledge of automotive history. FIATs have been around forever and were not always a small car. They built some awesome LSR cars back around 1910 give or take a few years. It doesn't surprise me that some have been street-rodded.

Aaron says I have it almost right. Is it a Willys-Knight? It also resembles some late 20s Hudson-Essex cars but the moldings around the windows are different.
