The only two pics I found that were quite similar were this one from a '48 Buick, and one from a mid-30's Chevrolet truck.

 

I also found this one, which, while of interest, does not immediately seem related to the search query:

I am certain it is not Bugatti. Look towards pre war Panhard, such as the Dinamic which was very Art Deco on the exterior. Possibly also Hotchkiss.

Oh, Jumper got it while I was typing. Newer than I would have guessed.

Cool, another GRM mystery solved. I was thinking 1930's, but was a ways off.

Well, 1951 in France, they would still have been using many prewar bits, since it took French manufacturing a while to rebuild after the war. So it may well be a 30s design.

I immediately figured non Panhard.  I've got a Dyna cluster in the garage.


thanks, Trent!  I was hoping this didn't go down Stampie's medieval sounding rods post and still be unsolved.  I lost hope after it being unsolved after an hour with as quick as this group figures obscure stuff out

In reply to Patrick :

That was seriously some 5:30 AM bleary eyed, first sip of morning coffee "I think I recognize that" stuff.
