Hi Raul:

Yes, a Ford.
It is either a G 78A, built from 1937 to 1938 or a G 81A, built from 1938 to 1941. Without being able to see the front grille it is difficult to determine which one is yours. In any case, the rear wheel covers would indicate a "Spezial" model, an upscale variant.

It is barely visible indeed, but if this is really a wide bonnet as I've seen it the vehicle is Bedford MW 15cwt with standard wooden 15cwt GS body.

The lack of spare wheel also suggest runflat tyres.

Looks to me like a 1937 Dodge (US).

Hello Bill :D; I think you're right, because I did not find it as a German vehicle. Thank you very much :wink:. Cheers. Raúl M 8-).

Hi Bill and Raúl,
I'd call it as a '37 Plymouth based on the simpler bonnet trim detail but they are virtually identical (except for the grille) in any case!
On a personal note, the '37 Plymouth was my Dad's first car which he bought in the early 1950's. My younger brother and I spent a lot of time rough-housing in that mohair back seat. :lol:

Hi Raul/Max:

I think you are correct, Max, the little marks on the side of the chrome strip on the Dodge do not seem to be on Raul's photo and I just missed that.
As a point of interest, my first car was a 1937 Chevrolet 4 door sedan and my second one was a 1938 Oldsmobile coupe, both with mohair upholstery.
I really miss that fabric.

Bill
