Another 1937 Nissan Type 70?

This is from Pearl Harbor, so I doubt it.

OK if US, how about the 1936 Graham-Paige Crusader (2.8 litre) which was the basis of the 70?? I've only got 1 picture, side-on in a book which is the Nissan and it's identical - doors, window shapes and proportions, bonnet outline. I'll try and find something online.

Edit - try Link to "en.wikipedia.org" , but maybe the 1935 grille is better - Link to "www.motorsnaps.com" .

Definitely looks Packard to me. '36 to '37 range, I would say.

It is a six cylinder Packard - note the short engine hood. The first of them was 1937.

This car was mentioned in Walter Lord's book Day of Infamy:

"Four Navy Yard workers were blown to pieces in their green '37 Packard at the corner of Judd and Iholena."

(Ironically not by a Japanese bomb, but one of several U.S. Navy antiaircraft shells that landed in Honolulu during the attack.)

This is another photo; the bodies of the four men are still inside. I warn you it's rather graphic in close-up:
