Chris Paulsen Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Hi all,What is it? It has a 1909 NJ license plate. I believe it was on a NYC to Atlantic City Run.Thanks,Chris PaulsenMcPherson, Kansas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest austincar6 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Well Professor Paulsen,The hub caps look like they have an H on them. The head light set up high. I think its a Hupmobile.Any other guesses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Hupmobile didn't do anything other than a runabout until 1911. They were a very light car on an 86" wb. This car looks to be a lttle bigger than that. Hup did not use a tube front axle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Maybe it is a Herreschoff - 1909 was their first year. Wheelbase was 100 inches which would about match this car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 I just looked at the original photo again. I am not convinced it is an "H" on the hubcap.I'll scan it again and enlarge that area, and try to post it in a little while.Thanks,Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest austincar6 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 This may not be a Hupp, but there is a H or something that looks vary close, on the hub cap.Would like to see the enlarged Photo. In the mean time. What cars had a H or something that looked like an H? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erndog Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Almost looks like an "S". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 Thanks for the help so far.Here are close-up of the front and rear hubcaps. The first two are of the front hubcaps; the last two are rears.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMoneyPit Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 The radiator emblem looks like an early Fiat... Any way to enlarge the radiator script? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 I was thinking Fiat for one of the other photos I posted. There is no radiator emblem visible on this one. Here's the other car I think may be a Fiat, with a close-up of the radiator.Thanks,Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modela28 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 The radiator looks like a Warren Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 I can't find a Warren Detroit that looks like this. Could it be a Lambert? The couple photos I have show a similar radiator shape, and it's set back like this car, also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
