Hi Alif:

I think it is fairly certain that your vehicle is an ex French GMC ACK 353 as seen below.

Hi Alif,
I think it is a GMC ACK 353 4x4, probably of French origin.
Cheers,
Max

Hi Alif,

the vehicle on Your pic could be a Dux patrol car for 11 police officers, about 1927; getting on without doors (source of the pic: "Die Kraftfahrzeuge der Polizei und des Bundesgrenzschutzes" by Werner Oswald.

Regards

Bert

Hi Sturm,
It's not a Citroën but... the tanker version of the Chenard & Walcker FAR tractor/trailer system.

Hi Alif:

It is a Toyota AA made from 1936-1943. The phaeton version was the AB and that one is available as a plastic model.

Hi Alif:

Last one is a BMW, most likely a 320 or 321 which were built from 1937 to 1941.
