RD Marmande - old school

Here are two examples recewntly acquired. Balsa wood!

Most of Mr. Daffaure's models were marked with the make of the car only.
Can anyone identify the actual cars/bodies?

These are 1930 Peerless and 1937 Studebaker. Something tells me the Studebaker is dressed in a European body.

Another thing to remember with this brand, although clearly marked as 1/43, the actual scale of the larger cars is usually smaller. Enjoy!

Not new to me. Mr. Daffaure did many Cadillac models.

37 Stude limo? I don't see anything online even similar. I wonder what it is?
