  1. The car on the left, with the woman, is a 1941 Buick.
  2. The silver colored insulation wires are the original wires, which are intended for use on low voltage. The wires likely use a rubber insulation, which can become hard and brittle with age. For safety concerns, operation of these lights on a voltage greater than 30 Volts should not be attempted.
  3. Post WW2 sealed beam Unity (made in Chicago) driving lights. If the lights operate on 120 Volts, then the original 6 or 12 Volts bulbs have been changed. Unity is still in the business of making accessory lights and spotlights. I contacted them a few years ago to obtain a hole drilling template for mounting a spotlight for a vintage car.
  4. The California license plate (# 76535) is an early 1916 issue (white background with dark blue numbers). The plate was renewed in 1917, as it has Poppy tab over the California bear, as on the original issued plate. Since the car looks to be like-new in the photo, the car is likely a 1916.
  5. The car appears to be a customized 1938 Town Car (or perhaps a 1937). The sidemount covers, hood sides, and hub caps do not match a 1938 Cadillac. The front fenders could be 1937 Cadillac. However, the placement & size of the headlights look like a match to a 1938 Cadillac. The car looks like the V-8 model.
  6. Looks like a 1928 - 1929 Cadillac stone guard.
  7. The drawing in Post #2 is from the Buick Club judging manual. The years and models shown are Buicks.
  8. John, The last window frame is GM late 1930s thru 1941. This frame is rare, as in 1941 it was used only on Buick, Cadillac, and Oldsmobile convertible sedans. To get a good price, you will need to have the inner frame. The second frame from the top, with the center divider, is 1950 Studebaker. Grandpa
  9. The car shown in the link (post #4) to the 1939 New York World's Fair is a 1938 Cadillac V16 Series 90 convertible sedan. Two of these custom built Cadillacs were built for the White House.
  10. 1932 Chevrolet "Special Sedan", which includes chrome plated hood doors.
  11. Pictured is a circa 1917 Studebaker.
  12. Hi nzcarnerd, The unknown car pictured does not seem to have wheel rim bolts. Also, the size of the wheel hubs, and the extension of the hubs past the wheel, look like the 1926 Nash Ajax Six. The Nash Ajax does have a cross bar at the front of the frame, as does the unknown car. The picture, below, is a 1926 Nash Ajax touring car under restoration. Grandpa
  13. I would like to offer my guess. The unknown car is a circa 1926 Nash Light Six / Advanced Ajax.
  14. Here is an enlarged image of the unknown car.
  15. Looks like hub caps for a 1933 Buick artillery type wheel.
  16. The unknown car seems to be a large circa 1910 automobile which has several features that match one of the cars in forum post titled "Borrowed from HAMB p 5309" (original post July 11). The unknown car could be an Acme. Below is the car from the prior post and a picture of a 1910 Acme. The Acme isn't identical to the unknown car, but does have some similar features.
