Hard to tell in profile, but it looks like a Packard grill. About 1935, I think.

Could be a Packard, but not a '35, the headlights and hood vents are wrong. Might be a '33 Packard Limo though, based on the roof line. Front drivers area is removable top while rear is hardtop like many Limos of the period. Would love to see closer shots.

Here is a '33 Packard Limo from the other side. Might even be the same car but the wheels are a bit different.

Think your right .The difference in the wheels is probably attributed to the distortion caused by the processing program that the OP used, which is noticeable in other parts of the picture.

This is a very nicely composed shot - the height and texture of the building in the background is very effective. The profile of the Packard is sharp and clean.

I believe you are right, I just looked at the leaves on the tree and there is some definite heavy processing done there. I think I nailed the exact car now.
