Hi Topcat,
It looks late 20s early 30s American and I think it's a Pierce Arrow, probably a straight 8.
I'll try and find out more.
It's very pretty, are there no badges on it?

[_topcat]

no obvious badges and you are right on the age. 1932. it also has a straight 8. see what else you can find.
*hint*(might be worth trying to find how many are in the world)*hint*

I'm not at all sure that is a Pierce, the radiator shell is wrong. But it is certainly American and very nice looking car indeed.

It is the individual look of the pre-war that has attracted me to buying, when I've sold my Griff'

That's a 1930s Cadillac. That radiator mascot was in use until the first full-bodied Cadillacs, which used the 'V' crest.

It's not a V16 (bonnet's not long enough), but it's probably got a V8 under there.

[_topcat]

nope not a caddy'. its a straight 8 under the bonnet too. Have you noticed the extra window along the side?

Auburn?

Cord?

[_topcat]

Nope none of those.
1932 Buick 6 seater limosine. one of only 3 in the world. 1 in saudi, 1 in japan and 1 in Devon.
Still in service as well.

Gorgeous!
But it looks nothing like my '71 Electra 225 Custom Coupe did!!
