The roof and top do look a little wacky to me but I think that might just be the postcard printing and angle.

It definitely looks like a VW Bus though in the full size image

The wagon in front of the Type 2 might be a 1966 or so German Ford Taunus

Cool, that is a classy-looking car, sort of looks like a 60s Mercedes

Looks like the 1930s version of the Wagon Queen Family Truckster.

Looks like a 1938 Pontiac four door sedan with an arachnid-like array of headlights and marker lamps grafted on to fenders resembling the rear of an Opal GT. Kinda gives the impression somebody was afraid of the dark.

Oh, and stay out of its way because evidently it's quite mad.

As far as I am aware the vertical louvers with trim on the engine cowl side panels were introduced on the 1938 model, previously there was only horizontal trim. The number of horizontal bars on the front grill was also reduced.

Perhaps it is a '37 with a '38 hood and grill? Confused
Sometimes folks do that to make an old car look newer.

I was going by the tag attached to this photo: https://doyoulikevintage.postx2.com/post/122517597204/1937-pontiac-silver-streak-8
but I will have to agree with you, mukluk, after looking at the link you supplied, that it has grafted on lights.
