TheMoneyPit Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 There was a Rambler with that style of curtain windshield that used to show up at several shows in the southern New England area. Not sure if it was a Rambler thing or an aftermarket item for large early cars... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Windshield is aftermarket. Here is one on a 1916 Stutz Bearcat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintman Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Wow, absolutely fantastic. New one on me but has to be the one. Thanks When the numberplate and the light tube are removed it is not a round radiator but relatively conventional with rounded bonnet (hood). The primary pointer seems to be the drag link being prominently ahead of the axle. Most other cars of a 'round' type rad have it behind. Much appreciated!RegardsVintman (UK) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintman Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Numberplate and lifting tube removed. Somebody said that the screen is called a Cambridge Windshield.Thanls Layden.RegardsVintman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 2 distinctive features of Rainier, vertical hood handle half way up the hood and flair of top of the front fender toward the hood behind the headlamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clincher Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 "Cambridge Windshield" is the term we always used to describe that sort of flexible windscreen, constructed in much the same fashion as side curtains. Often seen on early fire engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCK81403 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Sorry for the delay; the Super Bowl got in the way. The color photo is a 1913 Pope-Hartford Model 33 with a rounded bottom radiator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The curve near the base of the radiator on the mystery car is not the bottom of the radiator but is the head lamp support. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
