    Here's the third one posted by Bill Kalsem, pretty sure it's a WWI era Studebaker Big Six, working on the other two.

    '19-teens unknown touring - Bill Kalsem c.jpg

    Studebaker was my first thought on this one too, but the disc wheels didn't come in until the 1922 model year I think and this one looks earlier. 

     

    This is a 1920 Model EG according to the caption with it.  At that time when wheel choice was woods or wires.

    This is a page from a dealer's album that was kept in the showroom, image is a photo mounted on linen so it will last longer. ( I wish I had the whole album not just one page!) the car is a 1927 ( 8-78) and 1928 ( 8-82) ELCAR.  With so much detail I think although looking like a rendering the image is a retouched photograph. Yes, lots of odd stuff in my collection you haven't even seen 1% yet.

    It may be an optical illusion but this pic it looks as if the steering column is quite upright so the box will be well back to make for a long steering arm (what is that part called?)  from the box to the front.

     

    In this pic the wheel appears to be at a different angle -

    The Nash looks to be 1946-48.

    The Nash is 1947.  The 1946 cars didn't have the small 'extensions' on the grille. The 1948 models did away with the chrome waistline strip. The pic is a '46 Ambassador, part of a project (three cars - not all of it here yet) that my son recently acquired. This one had donated its roof panel to another project which needed some curved steel. Note the 'narrower' grille compared with the '47. Relatively rare in right hand drive I think. There were just less than 200 Nash cars sold in NZ over the three years 1946-48 and many of them would have been the lower price 600.

    Sorry for the delay; the Super Bowl got in the way.  The color photo is a 1913 Pope-Hartford Model 33 with a rounded bottom radiator.

    The curve near the base of the radiator on the mystery car is not the bottom of the radiator but is the head lamp support.
