  1. They definitely look worth investigating... thank you... have they done work for you before?... Have a Locomobile that it looks like they would be specialized for
  2. Looking to avoid that type of distance but not out of the question if you have a really good recommendation ... no specific project right now but anticipate several.. thanks
  3. Would love to visit Dragone’s but unfortunately can’t make this weekend.. thanks for the heads up and will look out for next event there
  4. Looking for any recommendations for skilled and reputable mechanic shops specialized in brass era cars in the northeast U.S.A. Thank you
  5. The above is from Motor Vol.6 1906 https://www.google.com/books/edition/Motor/jDcjAQAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0
  6. Thanks NZcarnerd that was one of the first places I looked for info after you put me onto Grace’s Guide last time. I’m trying to determine if it was only the 15hp model that had shaft drive in 1906-07 or if it’s possible a 20hp C.G.V. could’ve had a shaft drive as well.
  7. Does anyone know when C.G.V. first introduced shaft drive and on what models and/or Hp cars it would have been available on in 1906 and 1907? I have read that the shaft drive was introduced on the 14-15hp models, which I believe included the Town Car chassis, and that the higher Hp models retained the chain drive for a time. Thanks to anyone who can enlighten me.

  9. TG57Roadmaster could you PM me about this car? Thank you.
  10. Thank you NZCarNerd... the Grace's guide is a great resource that I was unaware of.. Some background: The location is New York State and the owner of this car during this general time period 1913-1922 is known to have owned everything from Mercedes, Franklins, Fiats, Packard, Metallurgique, Buick and Saxon to Scripps Booth cyclecar Craig G. interesting about the RAF wheels and correlation to Mercedes... thank you
  11. Thanks for these replies so far... Our first hunch was also Mercedes due mainly to the shape of the radiator and the badge which, though hard to distinguish, hints at Mercedes... but have not found another photo that matches all the features of this car... The flat ends on the front fenders, rectangular back window, flare on end of rear fender, lamps at base of windscreen, the wire wheels... etc.. Looked at Cadillacs, Dodges... What are the chances this is a one off coachbuilt car vs. a production body? Thank you
