[targhediferro]

Can you understand to which car belongs this wrech? Make, Model and year for a point.

[FrontMan]

Chrysler Airflow, 1935.

[targhediferro]

not exact...but near, the year is correct.

[targhediferro]

Quite easy for experts, I suppose.

[FrontMan]

Plymouth?

[targhediferro]

Not Plymouth.

DeSoto Airflow

Not easy!!

I think we have to do a lot of detail work here.

It seems to have only four windows in the two doors, no rear quarter windows.

I has round instrument panel bezels, which seems to rule out Chrysler products of the 1935 etc. year.

The door configuration is a rear "suicide" door type as we Yanks call it, opening from the centre pillar.

The rear door panels have very ornate "ash trays" which would indicate a fairly expensive car.

There appear to be some "spare tyre covers" laying in the rear seat/area.  Again, maybe an expensive or at least middle range car.

Having said all this, I originally thought it was a Volvo Carioca but the door setup and the instrument panel did not match.  I haven't a clue.

Sixteescuda got the target...It's a Desoto Airflow from 1935. One point for him.

Isn't that a 1934 model Desoto Airflow, with those round instruments?

The 1935 Airflow dash looks like this.

My early research showed it as a 1934 as well.  But I never found one with the door-mounted ash-trays.

[Bill Murray]

I also have it as a 1934 model, the Town Sedan, with no rear quarter windows.

Edit:

This is the only photo I could find of the rear seat area.  This is the 2 door sedan, not the Town Sedan.  However, look carefully at the area just below the front of the window on the inner moulding line and I see the same ash tray as on the Town Sedan.
Not easy to see, but I think it is there.

First photo (if things stay in order) is a 1934 Desoto Airflow dash/wheel.  Second photo is a 1935 version.  You be the judge.
