I'm going to guess that the second one is the 1929 Steyr 37/100 hp designed by Porsche after he left Mercedes to work for Steyr.

Winner winner. Turkey dinner.
Both are Steyr. The first one is a Red convertible with pea green fenders (year unknown) and the second one is 1932 Maroon Steyr. Both owned by my wife's grandfather.

Was it in the properties (you're not supposed to look there  ) or in the photo itself?
