The side striping looks like a 1941 Studebaker, but the movie is from 1938...

Looks short enough in the nose to be a Ford.

It is this car - /vehicle_167741-Ford-V8-30-hp-78-1938.html. I am not sure if the identification is correct or not.

This is a very interesting picture .It is a 1937 Ford V8 DeLuxe Phaeton ( without the center posts as shown on the other picture).What looks like a side striping from a later Studebaker is in fact a popular accessory that was developed by a St. Louis , Montana firm. It is a combination of molding and beading consisting of a streamlined radiator grille extending into a series of raised molding strips running along the belt line and ending in a narrow sweep at the rear .This accessory made the 1937 Ford appear longer , lower and smarter.The strips were available in different colors .The other picture also shows that the car is equipped with rear fender skirts.

nzcarnerd wrote This is the same convertible as in the other pic - with the top up this time - which I think is a circa 1937 Ford.

I've just seen the 1944 "Maisie goes to Reno" with Ann Southern. Near the end of the movie a camouflaged 38 Ford Phaeton is used and it has the accessory molding. Probably the same recycled car.
