Another thumbnail mystery. (update:1934-36 Wikov 40 )

• 

Radu Comsa found this second miniature photo in the same Bucharest shop. This time no flag or movie title to help us out. So what you see is what you get. We first thought a special bodied Mercedes-Benz, but the hubcaps made us leave that track. We see costly Grebel headlights. Nicely detailed louvre doors (possibly the only real give-away?). Built in traficators and exuberant chrome body fittings. Twin chromed spare covers and a white top. All this not the most conventional and pointing in a high end direction. The wide chrome body strips may lead us to a Paris coachbuilder? Finally we're not the only ones impressed by the car. Note the man in the open window on the left.
