I never saw a step like that on the back fender, to get in the rumble seat.

I too first thought it was a Pontiac because of the hood ornament, but, the wheels and door hinges aren't right. Thats one nice looking car, I'll try to figure ot out.

The body must be by Fisher because it has a fishhook on the cowl.

Here is a close up of the side trim of a 28 Pontiac if that means anything.

Hood ornament looks like either Pontiac or Stutz to me. I also vote Pontiac.
