Here is a thread to post info and pictures of cars in Europe.
Original Post was as follows:
Hi,
Here are photos of that Reo Royale from 1934/35. Few years ago I exchanged messages with a man that knew about this. If I remember right this Reo still exsists. I try to find more information about it.

Juha, I moved your post to this new thread to discuss any cars you can dig up for us in Europe. Thanks for posting the pictures. I think 33 was the last year of the big Eight engine. Although this car looks to have a long hood Maybe one of our REO experts can comment?
Interesting Juha.
Almost looks like a hearse that was converted to passenger use. Somewhere I remember reading that Reo got a big order for chassis to use at hearses. Maybe Victor or John remembers.
From Jan/Feb Issue 1982 issue of CCCA Michigan Region Torque Magazine.
Does that Royale in Sweden have chrome spokes and rims ? or is the reflection . Who owns it now ?
Another reply from Juha:
Hi,
Here are three photos of 1931 Reo Royale which is in a carage in a town called Forssa. The Reo looks liitle odd although the car has been proven into veteran automobile register. The Royale has been imported to Finland several years ago. It may be so that the car only had chassis and the body has been put on the chassis here in Finland. It may well be so that the body is not from Reo or then it may be Mate Flying Cloud. At the moment I do not know anything about the engine. So it may well be Royale looking vehicle. I must try to find more info about this Reo and its history.
