A photo from historic Winnipeg - supposedly dated 1911 but I think the little roadster - make? - is from later than that. Looks to be an interesting six cylinder(?), low sided touring car across the street.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the car across the street is a Packard, and it sure looks to be, I think it's a 1913 model 48 phaeton.  RHD and different cowl than the touring car.

Bonnet shape resembles Selden.

Definitely Winton.

Winton?

I've seen tool boxes that look like these in many period photos, and wondered if the domed top is an accessory storage unit that is strapped over the tool box (as opposed to the tool box having a domed lid, not good to step on).  No idea what the cars are, but there should be enough clues.

Early PZEV?

Thanks for the Knox ID.  Here is what I'm told is a c. 1908-09 Knox runabout, air cooled.

Don't know what this is, but it strikes me as a huge car.

Look who got the best seats!  The world is a better place with dogs, especially when you're piloting a 1912 Packard 48 in your fur coat.

Here is a typical example of an early custom. Designed by one guy, built by someone else.......is it factory? Nope. Just a time when the automotive world was going from carriage builders to coach builders, and lots of things were fluid.......and some defy a particular category.

 

 

Body built after Packard went out of business.

1924 or 1925 Packard Roadster???

Yes, a 2-36 runabout.  Here's another view of the car.

No idea when or where this was taken, 1926 Rolls?  Car must be out there, somewhere...

Don't know the make of car, but there are plenty of clues for the sleuths.  Plate is 1913 Quebec (dealer).
