Axis Non-Armored Vehicles quiz

[Maxschnauzer]

Very good, uncle! A late 1938 or 1939 model, unusual to see one with a van body.

Please carry on the quiz.

[uncle]

[shamirnewell]

Should be quick

[Maxschnauzer]

Hi Shamir,
Steyr Type 270 1500A?

[shamirnewell]

Correct! Over to you.

[Alanmccoubrey]

Are we sure that it isn't a 2000 ?

Hi Alan,
Looks like it is really 1500, if judging from the rear suspension, it is more or less visible.
The same pic in better quality:

I've always worked on the theory that if it had a cab and wooden cargo body then it was a 2000 and that a 2000 was just a 1500 with extra springs.

[Maxschnauzer]

I thought about that and ultimately decided that the bed looked more of the size of the 1,5 tonner, at least compared to this dwg. of a 2000A:

In any case I guessed correctly so let's get on with it! Both Marque and Model on this one please.

Well, nobody seems to want to try this one so I will give it a shot.

The bead on top of the headlamp, the four louvers in the side of the motor hood and the appearance of the dashboard indicate to me a 1937 Packard 120. Photos below.

Good work, Bill.I had a feeling you would get this one in short order! Here's another view of a beautiful 1937 120 C from more or less the same angle as the original pic:

Your turn again now.

[Bill Murray]

Well, hours of looking and most of what I found to post has already been posted!!

So, I will cheat a bit with this photo. What is it, make/model?
