This is the relevant page out of the 1909 Handbook of Automobiles. It only has brief specifications, and they weren't a cheap car.

AHa, sorry for the late reply. I don't know about their engine/design and I have been looking for period article I had that would answer your quetsions. I can tell it's a 6 cylinder, 6-60, as the 4 cylinders are distinctively shorter.

I've seen this photo a number of times --because I like Palmer-Singers-- and this is what is attached to the original reference photo: "Driver in 1909 Palmer-Singer automobile in front of Fort Washington historical marker" https://digitalcollections.detroitpubliclibrary.org/islandora/object/islandora%3A176292

Period images to relieve some of the stress
Craig Gillingham replied to Walt G's topic in Period Photos - Pre WWII
This is a Barford & Perkins, and they usually had some sort of IC engine. https://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Barford_and_Perkins -
I think you're right.

I would say it is an Australian bodied Model T Ford.

I agree with Lump in that the bottom half of the plug is missing. I think this is an aero engine plug from the 20's. The rest of the plug looks to be NOS.
-
Yes, this is a 3/4" NPT spark plug, they have an OD of Approx. 1". The most common thing that used this size plug was the IHC 10-20 Tractor; they had a similar skirt around the base of the plug. There were other tractors and stationary engines as well that used this plug. I don't know of any vehicles that used this size.
-
I believe the spark plug at the top is larger than a 1/2" pipe thread and is actually a 3/4" pipe thread.

It's a Cadillac, and I think(!) the body is by Don Lee.

Cars to hay wagons and other conversions

I like this a lot. -
I believe this is actually a Mack, but not one of the more common larger coal-bonnet models; a smaller model. This is a photo of a similar sized chain drive 1918 model truck.

I found the advert, it was a part of a wanted advert on here a couple of years ago. https://forums.aaca.org/topic/299088-wtb-1921-30-stromberg-gasoline-strainer/

This is a Stromberg fuel filter, I had one once. I'll see if I can find an advert I had for one as well.

ID of an early European Car
Craig Gillingham replied to John_Mereness's topic in Period Photos - Pre WWII
That's a La Buire. -
Ed, good, I think we're on the same page here. I was looking for a photo of a Daniels with a Touring body like the O.P., but without running boards. The wire-wheels and side-step plates on the other cars you posted match the O.P. car nicely.
-
This is a 1920 Daniels. I realise body, mudguards, wheels etc. are different, but, It is a good comparison for the radiator, bonnet/hood, louvers, latch and side-lamp. I can't find an example of this exact body style, although those sidesteps were used on the town-cars. The wheels are also the same (Rudge).
-
That looks like a Daniels; they have that distinctive front edge of the fender that extends over the wheel.
-
Also, I should add that the Corsica provenience associated with this Stutz coupe relates to the London coach builder, Corsica. It has UK Corsica body plates fitted, although it seems odd that this car should be sent to the UK to be re-bodied then returned to Australia.

I've seen a recent photo of the OHV Austro-Daimler in Norway; he's basically got a roughly assembled car, but the only key component missing is the chassis.
