Could anyone help me identify the make and/or model of this car? I haven't had much luck. Thanks.

It's possible. The grill kind of matches something like that. But I'm not sure what that compass-like emblem is on the hood. I'm assuming it is Italian.

It is definitely Veritas, small German make from late 1940s - early 1950s.
I'll add a picture of 1948 Veritas RS. It is quitesimilar but not exactly.
Cheers! :)

Veritas used BMW engines.

This is another veritas, just compare the badge of this car with the one in the original picture

Yes, without doubt this is a Veritas, it might be the Veritas Comet S, but I am not sure. I will have to check on it

Henk, your car is a Veritas, but the RS one in particular. 36 were made (of which the first three cars had an electron body, the rest an aluminium one). It was built around a tubular frame, housing a tuned BMW 328 engine. It was built in '48 and '49. Hope this information is of any help.
