I don't like it either when a topic I have contributed to is deleted. I don't understand why the administrators can't just delete the offensive post(s) and not delete the entire thread. Is it a limitation of the software? Lots of good information has been lost due to the deletion of an entire thread.

A Sport Coupe typically does not have a convertible top, but a rigid top. A Cabriolet has a convertible top and roll up windows, as opposed to a Roadster that has a convertible top and no windows, but side curtains.

Fiat?

The second car is a Hupmobile, around 1924.

Still hoping someone with knowledge / expertise with REOs will chime in here to give more information about this particular model of REO.

Congratulations on the purchase of your Overland! Looks like it will be a fun car!

The picture of your great grandfather's car is really neat! It is great to have family photographs that help us to see how they lived years ago. I'm not sure when REO added the radiator fill/cap or if it was only on certain models in 1907. I was hoping someone with some knowledge / expertise on REOs would chime in here.

Jeff, this is a picture I found that looks like your great grandfather's car. I'll leave it to the REO experts to identify the specific model. The 1910 REO Model S you mention above was a four cylinder with the engine up front under the hood rather than the engine under the front seat.

1907 REO. And yes, that does look like a large flywheel!

Yes!

I also believe it is an Alco. Notice the logo on the hubcap in the picture below matches the hubcap in the original post.

The car to the far left with the man in the passenger seat is a Tourist. The car to the right of the barrel hooded Franklin is a Stoddard Dayton. The car in the very center of the photograph is a Packard. The car in front of the Packard and to the left of the Franklin may be a Mitchell. The script on the front of the radiator top tank is visible, but I can't read it.

I believe this is a photo of a Maytag automobile.

You are absolutely correct on your identification.

I agree it is a Mitchell, possibly a Model T. The wide bills on the front fenders, the radiator shape and script and the way the rear fender curves out from where it attaches to the running board confirm it for me.

Packard

I believe the radiator is for a Lambert. Below is a photo of a 1908 Lambert and your radiator looks like a perfect match.

The hubcaps are unique and one of the characteristics that caused me to think it was a Regal.

I believe the car is a 1909 Regal.

I would recommend Intercity Lines for transporting your Buick. Dan

The radiator does not look like Stoddard Dayton or Speedwell.

I used Intercity Lines a few years ago to haul a car from Arizona to Georgia. I was very pleased with their service.

This I believe is a Ranier automobile.

I believe this is a 1907 Thomas Flyer. The top of the radiator looks to have the correct shape for a Thomas although the front of the radiator is dark and hard to see in the photo. Note the box on the running board in front of the rear fender is for access to the chain drive which Thomas used.

I believe this is a 1909 Cadillac Model 30 Demi Tonneau.
