I am assuming "SSV" was a Saurashtra plate. Would anyone know ?

Re: Nostalgic automotive pictures including our family's cars

Travancore,

SSV was indeed Saurashtra.

The Bombay 1914 photo of (on the radiator) 38-337 black on white is a Greek registration of the period.

The registration (or whatever) down at the front axle is anyone's guess though sadly.

Cheers
Cedric

I would hazard a guess and say Buick of around the mid 30s? I think the white border painted alongside the car was WW2 related.

Thank you, I too voted (or guessed!) for Buick but did not know the model designation.

It is a 1933/34 Buick 60 C 4 door Phaeton. Picture is from circa. 1940 or so and the couple are Masood Ali Baig (Hyderabad, Deccan) and his wife Nawabzadi Salima Begum of Surat.

The picture location is probably Hyderabad.
