Can someone please tell me about the car in this image.
I have a client that wants to reprint his menu exactly like he did years ago but does not
have any of the original files. So I am looking on all of the stock photography websites
looking for the same image but they need more info about the car.
Can someone please tell me what year and type of car this is?
Thank you!

Well, the grille has the old Chevrolet logo from the 30's. and that hood ornament looks like a 1928 Hudson. Headlights have not been mounted like that on fenders since the late 1920's. So what you have there is a hybrid, or Frankencar. Maybe somebody will spot something I don't.
Possibly a 1936 Chevrolet. Mid 30s anyway.

Thank you for your responses. I was wondering if this was a frankencar LOL. Only because it just didn't match up 100% on my image searches. I am wondering if this was a photo of a custom car that they just can't find anymore.
Got me curious and messed around looking, Pepsi/cars. Pepsi hasn't been associated ot affiliated with any car company for as far back as I can find
I am thinking this is an advert for a local pizza place due to the reference to delivery radius.
"Since 1978" above the partial image of the cow....something familiar about that.... eludes me

At the link scroll down towards the bottom. Hood ornament and front look very similar.

Oh yes this is a restaurant. They are out in Virginia and it has one of those checkered flag/sock hop theme's to it. I am redesigning their take out menu.

Yep but I guess you can put the logo on a menu if your using their products.
Oh, I'm sure the beef producers want it, maybe even pay to have their logo, anywhere and everywhere they can. To their benefit
Do a google image search for a "34 chevrolet hot rod red
or do a search for 1934 chevrolet on www.flickriver.com

Fordnut. Where did you find that first image? That is almost perfect.... or at least I can ask the client if he would be ok with that image.
