  1. Probably Chrysler around 1928-30. Need a photo.
  2. No idea yet what this is but it is not Studebaker. Their tourers of this era all had suicide front doors. The style of fenders/mudguards/wings with the edge like that suggests a date of 1918-1919. The radiator appears to have its filler protruding slight forward from the slope at the top which would be a distinguishing feature.
  3. It is not big enough to be a Series 90. Might be an 80. The clue is position of the rear door pillar in relation to the rear wheel.
  4. Ah, here it is - Flickriver: Photoset '1911 Fiat Tipo 6' by dmentd - 1911 FIAT Tipo 6 - Fiat Tipo 6 - Wikipedia I think it is 130mm bore x 170mm stroke - the biggest of the regular road going FIATs of the era. Contrary to what it says here - 1911 Fiat Tipo 6 Images, Information and History | Conceptcarz.com - it has only four cylinders. More big early FIATs here - 2012 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance Gallery - 'Class K Fiat' - Supercars.net
  5. It is a FIAT from around 1912. Don't know the specific car but some research will find it.
  6. The Model 34A started in 1916 but the sloped windshield was used from sometime in 1917 as far as I can see and the model continued with little change until hood louvres appeared sometime in 1921.
  7. I have been going through all of the cars that I think this it might be but not and after much research I have gone back to my original thought - Willys-Knight. I had thought it was the more expensive Model 66 but I think it is actually a 1929 Model 70B.
  8. The pic on the right in post #19 is a K Series Bedford and was shot in New Zealand. The registration plate appears to have a comma as punctuation which would suggest the pic was shot in the period 1951 to 1956 - License Plates of New Zealand The short-back-and-sides haircut of the milk vendor would help confirm that.
  9. Maybe Austin?? - Austins
  10. The reason I thought this car was a Willys-Knight was the peak in the radiator which led me to think it was a Model 66B but they generally seem to have three bar bumpers - like Buick used in 1929 - or else tube type. It is certainly not a Marmon like the one in Woodfiddler's pics - that has its headlights mounted on stands like Buick and Cadillac used. I now think it is not a Willys-Knight at all but is in fact a 1929-30 Dodge DB Senior Six. UK-67-24 Dodge Senior Six Series S 4-door sedan [1928/1956] | Flickr - Photo Sharing! Dodge DB Senior 5 Seat Landau For Sale, classic cars for sale uk (Car: advert number 180100) | Classic Cars For Sale Maybe try posting it in the Dodge forum?
  11. 6 am Christmas morning and I am here on the computer. Seems every day something interesting turns up on this site! I think this car is a Willys-Knight around 1929-30.
  12. The two bar bumper identifies it as a 1931 Model 54 - the base 114" wheelbase six cylinder model in the Studebaker range that year. Price new $795. Like most of that year they were optional with wood or wire wheels.
  13. I also though maybe GWK as soon as I saw it. Some info here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GWK_(car) and plenty of pics on the net.
  14. From the shape of the Buick cowl it is more likely to date from 1925 or 1926.
  15. That green roadster has several non-original add-ons. I suspect that the green moulding below the door is also non-original. All of the other pictures I have seen do not have it.
  16. Buick built two door 'convertible phaetons' - their nomenclature - in their 50 and 60 Series in 1932 - 1932 Buick Convertible Victoria Factory Photo | eBay - and no doubt others did too.
  17. I would tend to favour Studebaker because the LaSalle has the top pivot point well below the top edge of the body and the Studebaker has a greater gap between the passenger door and the golf bag door.
  18. Had another look at this. Is it actually powered?? The rear axle and frame rails look to be the original wooden items and there does not appear to be any sort of final drive. I think it might just have a later-era braking system??
  19. Assuming it is US built there should be a serial number plate under the hood. There is some decoding info here - 1947 To 1955 Chevy Truck Serial Numbers
  20. It looks very similar to 1927 or 1928 LaSalle except that the golf bag door handle is not there. Suggests it might be Fisher-bodied? I don't think it is Buick though because it is obviously has quite a long wheelbase and the biggest Buick roadster in 1929 was the series 121 on a 121" wb.
  21. Maybe something amongst this lot?? - Nissan's DNA Garage, Zama Japan
  22. No idea what it is but the brake drum and brake lever look to be from the 1920s or later. What is it powered by? Maybe it is a concoction from later years?
  23. The chain drive truck might be a Gramm - based on Overland mechanicals.
  24. I think the little truck is a Buick.
