I would have guessed '33 Olds, but looks like '33 Pontiac wins.

Found this picture of a 33 Pontiac I saw a couple of years ago.  It has a similar fire wall.

Darn if I know, just found the images on google this morning.  I woke up couldn't get back to sleep so I went surfing.  Looked at Olds, Buick, and Pontiacs. Looks like either the Olds or Buick had similar dashes with more gauges.

I think the secret to identifying this one, believe its a 33 because of the short firewall under the hood, `1934's are much longer.

The firewall paneling is definitely a tell, and especially the dash panel. Identify the dash and I think you identify the body.

This 5 window body style by FISHER was used on 1933 : Pontiacs, oldsmobiles, Chevrolets, buicks. 

 If they had not discontinued the ( Pontiac ) Oakland in 31, the ( buick ) Marquette in 1930, the Oldsmobile (  Viking ) 1930, we could be looking at those toooo.
