I'm no expert whatsoever but I'd say it's an early to mid twenties runabout or roadster.
I'm sure someone will chime in here shortly with more detailed information.

Here'
s the most likely answer, from "The Old Motor" "The Packard's coachwork is quite unusual, attractive and rare - we would like you to tell us, which coachbuilding company constructed the body and also what series the chassis it is on and the approximate year it was built. The photo, taken in 1929, is courtesy of reader William Simpson, and it shows his father and his new bride Helen in front of her house. He wrote: "My father was a car nut, and always had a Cadillac in his later years, but I'm not sure if this is one. His idea of a relaxing time was to go out to the garage (where we had a hoist) and do a valve job. Update - Readers that have comented all agree that this Packard is a third series (mid-1917 to early 1923) Packard Twin Six. As to the coachbuilder that constructed the body, both Don Lee and Fleetwood have been identified as possibilities." With the poster saying the photo was taken in Bakersfield CA and my knowledge of coachwork, it's by Don Lee of Los Angeles
