Vintman Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hi Folks,Would appreciate your help with this photo as we have not got anywhere with it. Photo was probably taken in Australia or New Zealand. Looks like an American roadster of 1916/18. The hole in the skirt by the back wheel may help, as may the rearward slanting louvres on the bonnet. Any idea of what it is?Kind RegardsVintman (UK)www.svvs.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) I'm guessing Oldsmobile.... roughly 1920. Edited December 2, 2014 by West Peterson (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 The only car I can find with this hole on "splach pan"are Chandler,but nothing else will be the same as in the photo from Vintman.http://massingnickel.se/orgchandler.htmlLeif in Sweden.

CarlLaFong Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 ^^^^Nope^^^^It's Stan Laurel in "Towed in a Hole".Stan has made life miserable for Ollie so, in exasperation, Ollie ties his arms around the barrel and makes him sit there while he tries to get some "woik" done on the boat that they purchased. Later on, we see he has also blackened Stan's eyes, as well.My grand daughter and I got matching tattoos a while back to commemorate our lifelong love of "The Boys"............and each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Stan Laurel would have been my next guess with that derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) Here he`s,we call them "helan and halvan"in Sweden,the hole and half. I don`t know who is who?But I Think I have seen most of the "Movies"they have done.But that will not solve the questin about what car it`s from Vintman I think.Leif in Sweden Edited December 3, 2014 by Leif Holmberg (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintman Posted December 6, 2014 Author Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hi all, Thanks for your thoughts but I think this one is destined to join the few 'Unidentified' on our Help Pages. Unless sombody knows different.....RegardsVintman (www.svvs.org) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_a Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) I found a picture of a 1918 Reo with 9 slanted hood louvers like that in www.carmagik.com (10/2/13). I will admit it looks very Oldsmobile-like, too. Edited December 10, 2014 by jeff_a (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
