Walking through this town in desert steppe of Patagonia, in the rain-shadow of the Andes, we came across this beautiful car “showcased” on a hotel’s grounds. It’s obviously a Ford but can someone help me figure out what year and model it is?
A Glance at the Architecture of Downtown Casablanca
DrFumblefinger explores the architecture in “Downtown Casablanca”. Most were constructed in the period between WWI and WWII, and show art deco and art nouveau features combined with Moroccan/Moorish features.

I could be wrong, but I think that’s a Model A from the late 20s. While I was looking at pictures, I noticed that Buenos Aires is among the places Ford made them…
Just a followup.
Car experts have identified this as a 1929 Ford Model A. PHeymont was spot on in his analysis.
Not the usual car you see in Argentina, but a delight to see nonetheless!
