Looks DKW to me. Auto union logo on the rear fender.

And probably a Steib LS200 sidecar.

Thanks gents. Quite the big company at one stage apparently.

According to Wikipedia - During the late 1920s and until WWII broke out, DKW was both the world's largest motorcycle manufacturer, as well as Europe's pioneer of front wheel drive automobiles with their successful 1931 and later DKW Front models, before the 1932 Adler Trumpf and the 1934 Citroen Traction Avant.

Still a big company in its later guise. Ever noticed the Audi logo...

I'd call that a 28 or 29 Chief. Left side kicker, right hand shift, front brake and bullet headlight.

Pretty sure it’s a 28 or 29 Four…..

You can see the screws on the front engine cover, the back side of the generator and the locking clutch pedal here.

And the oil pressure gauge and spark plugs here.

And doing a little digging in my literature I’m gonna say it’s a 29, in 28 (at least early 28) Indian was still selling the Indian Ace

IMG_2106.jpeg IMG_2105.jpeg

But in 29 it was the 402 Indian Four

I don’t know when that switch happened, maybe some were sold as 28s?

How about the pin stripping on the fenders... Ace with the dual pin stripping; 402 has the single pin stripping. I'm looking at the ads you have posted above.
