That looks like a Euclid on some kind of dyno/testbed powered by a pair of 6/71 Detroit Diesels.

Any info on this ?

That car marks the very beginning of the new Chrysler Motors Corp in 28. Walter Chrysler bought out the Dodge Brothers, then came out with the new Plymouth and new DeSoto to go along with his Chrysler cars.

It's a very early DeSoto, but actually that one has the very early 5 lug wheels, early wrap-around bumpers, so it was built in 28...but still called 29 Model K. ( that one has a Model A Ford wheel on the front, but the rear might be correct)

 

Wow! That would have been great for the drive-in movies...if you know what I mean.
