Interesting........

I have been staring at 1935 Hudson Super 8 photos for an hour now and it was said that the chassis
and year were incorrect on Pal's post, or at least the first one I saw.

I was totally convinced this was the base vehicle but could go no further as that was my choice,

Now, is the coachwork French????

Yes, it's French.

Not Franay, it's obscure.

Nice guess, but not by Saliot.

Sadly, more "diligent" searching turned up no matches.
However, I did notice the coachbuilder Van Vooren did a number of very similar bodies on French chassis
so I will suggest that as a "maybe".
