Citroen 10HP Type B2? |

That was my idea as well, but the rear of the roof is too much rounded, the B2 wasn't (standard) available with a trunk and with bumpers... 1932 C4 G would fit, but then the distance between front wings and wheels is too big. |

In my opinion this is a 1925 Citroen B 12 2 door coach 1452 cc.These had an all steel body and integrated trunk and the gap between the front wheels and the wings was more important than on the 1926 B14.One exterior detail that distinguishes a B 12 from a B 14 is that the former had a pointed radiator shell ,the B 14 had a flat one but this is not visible here.This body is far too old to be a C4.Unfortunately very dark. |

I agree that a C4 would be more modern. But a B12 (introduced in October 1925, hence m.y. 1926) still had a more pointed rear top of the roof and no bumpers. Also the two-door six-window coach was only available as 1919-1921 Type A or 1922-1925 B2, not anymore as 1926 model... 1927 was the first year that Citroën had factory built trunks, though maybe it was earlier that accossory truks were available. I'm afraid this is not a standard factory car... |

This one is still puzzling me but the picture is really too dark .Looking at my documents , this could also be a Chenard & Walcker 7 cv 1.3 l 2 door coach either 1926 ( model Z 2) or 1927 ( model Z 5).These had large sraight springs , a rounder rear roof top compared to the Citroens you mention and a factory installed trunk as on this one .They had rear hinged doors and plain disc wheels 2 points that coud help identify , but this is not visible here.The little 7 cv Chenard & Walcker was a robust car and several survived the war. |
