I think the DKW woody is better looking than the Morris Minor. The smooth hood line does it for me; plus it has suicide doors.

Agree. The DKW is much better looking than the Morris.

Yup-----the Deke's headlamps really make a fashion statement, don't they?

The Morris looks awkward, the deek looks sleek!

Is that a 1926 Hudson getting out of the dust bowl?

It reminds me of Tatum O’Neal, Best Supporting Actress Oscar winner for ‘Paper Moon’.

The radiator looks incorrect to me for a '26 Hudson, the windshield is also wrong.

I'd say it's more like a 1925 Chrysler touring car.

I absolutely agree- you can see the sealing wax Chrysler stamp logo on the grill in addition to all the above.

Oh sure, the logo and all...
That pick got me thinking of Oklahoma and Tom Joad.
Cheers!

There's a logo on the grill? All I can make out is a small dark blob at top center of the chrome.

You have to compare it to better images online- but it, the grill shell, engine cowling and panels- all add up to Chrysler. Very neat proportions on that car. I bet there were 70 companies that made uglier cars in 1926.

IES Súper América

The 2CV family of cars is probably second only to the Beetle as far as familiarity of shape. Add on awful square headlight shrouds and a front license plate that says Argentina across the top, and you get the 3CV and its derivatives.
