A case of emergency. (Update II)

• 

UPDATE II by Peter Ransom (AU):"...the drum headlights are wrong and so are the louvres in the bonnet (or hood). '25 and '26 Lincolns had drum headlight but the mudguard profile is different and the louvres are different (in relation to the photo). I don't think this is an early 30's Lincoln. I'm staying with 1927 Cadillac (OhioConcours.com)
UPDATE I by Albono Deulus, earlier competition winner : "...the ambulance <...> looks like a Lincoln, early 30's (i.e. 30 - 32). However, the hood ornament is a bit different than that which Lincoln would have used."
EARLIER TEXT: by Bas de Voogd: Back in the 1930’s flying “trauma teams” were dealing with the sick and wounded already. In this case the picture was made at the village of Oostvoorne (NL) which used to have a small airport (clic) for private and bussiness use. In those early days Holland already had good hospitals and an airport in the nearby city of Rotterdam, but emergency transport over the narrow country lanes to town was difficult and time consuming. The situation was that bad that a plan was developped by the local health authority to create a new mainroad from the farmland south of Rotterdam to the city. This road was realised just before the war and was named “Groene Kruis weg” (Green Cross Road). The aeroplane showing in this 1935 photo is a Fokker VII (Pozarart.com) piloted by Adriaan Viruly (homepage Leo Bakker). In fact the only question is what chassic was used to create the ambulance?
