gossp Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 This is a friend's family photo; they asked what kind of car it is. 1916 Chevrolet 490 is the closest I could come up with. Any other thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 1914 Dodge - the first year for these. Could be 1915 as well I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Not a Dodge. The body is similar, but the fenders have a lower crown on them. The Chevy 490 looks more like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gossp Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 I believe a Dodge would have a cover over the front of the rear sping mount on the splash apron in front of the rear fender. The cowl is better looking on a Dodge too I think. I also think a odgeD windshield would have points sticking up to catch the top. I am such a nerd.

gossp Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 I also considered '15 Buick small four-cylinder. Honestly, they could be virtually identical to a Chevy for the purposes of what we see in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwells Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 My ex-wife would straighten you out on those claims! LOL... I'm just a semi-retired guy who has learned to use a very capable photo-editing application to a decent extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gossp Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 I would listen to her for about as long as you would listen to the wife walking out on me right now. At at least there are cars, beer, and right now, mushroom season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
