I really like this website!!!! It's been a great source for Pre-1916 Buicks.

This looks like GREAT FUN!!! This is what old cars are for!!!

This appears to be a 1912 Cadillac. I think this photo is from the 1950s or 1960s and it is one of Lindley Bothwell's cars from Los Angeles area. He had a large collection of cars, especially brass race cars, and would get together his race cars and film them racing.

This Model 19 is a great car. I like the "middle teens" (or slightly later) modifications such as the added front doors and some of the engine's improvements. My Model 16 has early engine modifications such as a side mount water pump, carburetor/manifold, Stewart vacuum gas system, grease cups valve rockers, etc. The body had the seat lowered and slanted to give it a "racy" look.

Of course, the Model 19 (1910) and 21 (1911) are OHV (over head valve) and 255 CID. The Model 16 and 17 are 318 CID and OHV (over head valve) for 1909 and 1910. The Model D, S, H, and K have a 255 CID engine, but it's T-head for 1907 and 1908.

Ummmmm, You all forgot the Buick T-head, 1907-1908 Models D, S, H, and K. The Model K, H, S and D had a 4 cylinder, 255 CID, T-head engine and was the first four cylinder engine built by Buick in 1907. The Model D was a touring and the Model S was a roadster. These are rare but there are still couple in existence. The Model H and K was a different version, but had the same engine. Here is a photo of a Model S roadster, owned by the Early Buick Expert, Mr. Skip Carpenter. Also, in one-year-only, a Model 5 in 1908 that had a four cylinder, T-head and was 336 CID. The Model 19 is a middle size car with 255 OHV CID. The Model 16/17 is the largest car for 1909-1910 and had the 318 OHV CID engine.

Accidents happen. Driving ANY car can get into an accident. My neighbor just had an accident in a BRAND NEW 2023 Ford Pickup that had less than 500 miles on it. His truck is TOTALED-way worse than this Locomobile! And he spent three days in a local hospital because the truck's cab was crunched. You take your chance every time you leave your house-whether you take your old car or your new car. I'll take my chance! And I'll have fun driving my old cars.

But a 1932 Ford is a Deuce. A Model A isn't a Deuce. A fair price on a Deuce fordor. If it had a V-8, it would be a 10K more. If it was a Deuce 5W coupe it would cost 50K and if it was a 3W coupe it would be 70K plus.

Does anyone have any contacts for the owner/seller of this 1914 Jackson that was at Carlisle? Thanks. PS- Thanks for the photos! Great job!!!

Both my grandfathers lived in Yugoslavia. Their horsepower was actual horse power or probably some other type of donkey or cow power. My father came over to the US from a very young age from Yugoslavia (not called Croatia back then). He grew up in Los Angeles and owned a 1951 Chevrolet Two Door in the early 1960s. He had "Dutch" pinstripe the car that was modified. He is still alive at 87.
