keiser31 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 First car looks like a Rollin or Roamer with that Rolls Royce-like radiator shell. Second car, possible a Sunbeam or Singer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscheib Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I am thinking the "S' on the back of the second is for Sweden registration, as right hand drive. Both are sure handsome cars.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 First car is a Roamer, no older than 1919.http://www.hemmings.com/hcc/stories/2006/02/01/hmn_feature28.htmlhttp://www.remarkablecars.com/for-sale/showproduct.php/product/10598The second car could be just about anything. It's a custom body that is typical on cars such as Alfa Romeo, Talbot Lago, Delahaye, Delage, and Bugatti (I'm pretty sure this one is NOT a Bugatti, however).

Manuel Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 The bottom one looks Euro possibly with a one off body. French/German maybe with those heavy folding arms on the hood. Apart from the Commonwealth countries I don't know who else had RHD.Manuel in Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I believe that the almost triangular-looking coachbuilder tag just below the door would lead one to believe this body was built by Figoni et Falaschi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Peterson Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Yah, and I got it all over my computer screen too. I suspect the car is either a Delahaye or Delage, most likely post war. Delahaye absorbed Delage in 1935, and except for the D8 model (which added two cylinders to the Delahaye engine), Delages were basically badge- and grille-engineered Delahayes.

Guest weaving Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 thanks for ID of my first photos. I have three new photos maybe I can get some help, I think the truck on the first photo is a Nash, but what year? next photo the car to right?and the last photo?regards cartom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Lichtfel Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Regarding the first picture, didn't Moon have a radiator like this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 The last pictures seems to be the King of Sweden Gustav 5 Adolfholding his hat sitting in the rear seat,and maybe also beside ,the kronprins and later the king Gustav 6 Adolf nearest in rear seat. The car looks like Horch or Austro Daimler -10s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Regarding the second lot of pics. I think Nash only did 4Wd trucks (Quads). That looks like a name beginning with R on the badge - maybe Ruggles?? The second pic is a GM showroom with a new 1929 Chevrolet and a 1929 Oakland landau sedan.

Manuel Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Can someone enlarge the radiator on the WW1 military truck so we can read what it says. I can't believe how narrow it is.I agree with NZ on the 29's.Have we seen the royal car before. Looks familiar. Maybe it didn't have the flags [pennants] flying at the front.It has different tyres this time.Weaving, are all the pics from Europe?

keiser31 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Yes....some Moon autos had the Rolls Royce look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 The first letter looks like a T on the truck and then 3 maybe 4 letters,seems to be cars in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintman Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Leif, re the 'King' photo, I am not sure about it being either an Austro Daimler or Horch. Austro Daimler had angles and Horch were mainly flat. The front of the radiator in profile is a rounded curve with a very thin top section. Most of the German and Austrian cars had a much thicker section to the top profile of the rad. I think this could be a cca 1918 Opel tulip bodied phaeton of the spitzkuehler type. Chain drive, v windscreen etc. Was also considering an Austro Fiat and the Stoewer but of a later period which would not match photo. What is the year do you think?

oldiron Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I agree with Green Dragon on the Moon radiator. In fact, the car itself appears to be an early version of the Moon 6-40. I say appears ? ? ?. Further, the two guys with the truck appear to be dressed in either Cavalry or early Motor Pool dress of 1918. Finally for me, the picture just below the truck is most certainly Chevrolet; i.e. checkout the bowtie/oval logo on the radiator. regards; jerry janson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintman Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 The first car has a 'Rolls' type radiator which was widely copied. The Moon version generally had a wide side section each side of the matrix. The Rolls had a very thin section, - as did the Roamer. I think the car in the picture is a cca 1919/20 Roamer Rumble Seat Roadster. It appears to have the 'Rolls screw type' wheel hub,- as did the Roamer, but the clincher for me are the two semi-circular hinge stays - of the Roamer rumble seat.

Guest weaving Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 regarding the truck, I think It`s a Nash, not easy to read the badge on the radiator, but I think the first letter are (N) regards cartom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leif Holmberg Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Vintman re "King of Sweden." I don`t agree about Opel 1918,the fenders looks different and there are no cowl light either.

Vintman Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi Lief,I guess that if the car was made for the King of Sweden it would not be a standard model with standard features. Surely a special body with special features. Long bonnet suggests big engine. As far as the additional smaller lights, if you look between top of wheel and mudguard, I think you could make out a faint white vertical line suggesting lamp? When do you think the photo was taken. If you know a relatively accurate date then we can narrow down on features.RegardsVintman (UK)www.svvs.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintman Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Hi,The motorcycle looks very much like a British cca 1936 'Royal Enfield' Model L 500cc machine.

Leif Holmberg Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 The second car from top ia a Talbot-Darracq 1939 from Figani&Falash.This car is showed in the Swedish Autohistorica number 2.1985. With help from nice Swedish gays we got it. Mr.Vintman I were told that the "King"car is a Horch 1920 but is`t own by the King,it`s a private car in Sweden. Even that`s from the same man who told me about Talbot. Thanks to Jan Stroman and Gunnar Geijer. Leif in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintman Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Hi Weaving,The first of the current bunch of photos is a cca 1924 Steyr Type 5. You have some lovely photos there.

Vintman Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hi Lief,Been looking at Horch and note that not much pictorial information is available anywhere on Horch cars cca WW1-1925. Before and after, they had plain type of radiator. There seems to have been a model with a spitzkuhler for two or so years but I cannot find a good photo. The profile of the header tank does seem thin. In view that your contact said that it was definitely a Horch, then it presumably must be one. Do you/he have a photo/s to confirm?? Do we have an accurate date for the photo, or the event?RegardsVintman (UK)www.svvs.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leif Holmberg Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 This is a Swedish Thulin car 1920 or a few years later. Vintman,I don`t have a photo ,but 2 well known car gays told me the same car name and year,but I`m waiting for photo of a NAG.I know the owner (he bought a 1925 Buick Std. a couple of years ago from me),and he told me that his NAG very much looked like the car with the King.

Leif Holmberg Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I`m wrong about Thulin,when looking closer the badges on the radiator are opp and down on this car compared to Thulin.I`m sorry. Leif in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Weren't Orient Buckboards much smaller than that? First car in the current photos looks like a 1902 or so Model A Cadillac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
