  1. According to this eBay listing, 1980-88 Isuzu Pup. I recognise the logo, but I'm not familiar with the Pup. https://www.ebay.com/itm/274958925556?hash=item4004d43ef4:g:iP0AAOSwNtxhTTxD
  2. This is a Parisienne Victoria Combination. There are a couple still in existence, and I've been told they aren't exactly the safest thing to drive.
  3. It's a Berliet, although I'm not sure exactly what model it would be. They made a variety of models back then. https://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Berliet
  4. I see now, I didn't notice that beforehand.
  5. It's a KW, which they called a low tension magneto and only had the one winding on the armature. The point were external to the magneto and were usually an igniter mounted in the cylinder head. These points were timed to the engine, this created the current for the spark. Personally, I'd still call it a magneto.
  6. The Ford trucks had one similar to this -Thames I think.
  7. If its origin is from the US, then the 1913-15 issues of The American Cyclecar, and Carette are available online, and may be helpful. https://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/100157704?type%5B%5D=all&lookfor%5B%5D=cyclecar&ft=
  8. I think this is a 1933 FIAT 508. There aren't too many photos of the 508 Tourers on the internet. The catalogue illustration is actually from a German catalogue.
  9. That's a Joseph Lucas mirror, so I'd lean towards something British.
  10. The first car looks like a Métallurgique; possibly a 12HP.
  11. It's a Mercedes-Benz, -- I think the type 300? Those model Mercedes are difficult to identify accurately, and they made a lot of model variations in the 20's . Those wheels would have the splined Rudge hubs. More info here: https://mercedes-benz-publicarchive.com/marsClassic/en/instance/picture/Typ-300.xhtml?oid=122141
  12. The pedal photo came from this AACA thread featuring a 1917 Peerless. https://forums.aaca.org/topic/122653-new-peerless-discovered/
  13. Those flags were used on Triumph Heralds, possibly other models as well.
  14. I think the two separate engines in the OP are both Peeress, there are a few details that match other Peerless engines. For me, the adjustable brake and clutch pedals are very distinctive. The engine in the chassis I'm not so sure about, as it has details that match a Peerless and other details that don't. I'm familiar with this actual Daniels engine shown above, it used to be in Australia at one stage (I even took that photo!), and that definitely had single ignition. Those extra plugs would have only have been placed there to fill the priming plug holes. It belonged to a mate, and I know that it has since been sold and I was told that it was a 1916 engine.
  15. I must say these are fascinating parts. The engine in the chassis with single ignition is a good match with a Peerless engine. Another photo showing the chassis, and particularly the wheel, so that the wheel manufacturer could be identified, may help as well. I haven't seen or read about a twin-spark H-S V8 before, so this is all very interesting. If it's a factory fitted option, then it's something particularly rare.
  16. That's a Herschell-Spillman V8, used in other cars as well, Daniels for example.
  17. Yes, somewhere outside the USA. The other cars -to me- look very European. I've found this close up of an Arrol-Johnston wheel, which I think matches the unique wheel stud pattern.
  18. The second car I think is an Arrol-Johnston; they have a very distinctive wheel stud pattern. The fourth car looks like some type of Talbot, or Clement.
  19. Excellent photos. The sedan at the front is a 4 cylinder Morris-Leon Bollee. A few of these ended up in Australia, and there must have been a few go to NZ as well.
  20. OK, I'm pretty sure it's a V8 Cole, either 1916 or 1917.
  21. I'd like to know what make of vehicle the OP is. I do know it isn't an Oldsmobile or a Haynes of any year.
