I've been looking at different cars from the era with similar styling for at least an hour now, but I'm struggling to find a perfect match. The grille, headlight beam, wings and body (including the hinge positions) resemble a 1930 Chrysler, but the hood with the characteristic flat edges looks like that of a Packard. The wheels are also very untypical for a Chrysler from that era, and do instead indeed look like units from a Packard. So maybe a Chrysler with certain parts lifted from a Packard?

Thank you very much for the effort. Maybe it's a higher end Fiat

Fiat is not a bad idea, indeed. In fact I think it is after more careful consideration, here's a Fiat 522 L.
