keiser31 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Looks more like a Saxon, to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hddennis Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 If I look at the squared cowl, I see what you mean but the Saxon radiator shell would match and this car seems to have had a hood that is rounded in the front and squared in the rear, almost like a Maxwell shell on a Saxon cowl.Howard Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Looks like a Hupmobile to me. Looks like an "H" on the hubcap, too. Here's a similar cap. I hope this helps,Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hddennis Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 The "H" hubcap, the cowl and windshield shape and the front fender attachment all seem to match 1915-17 Hupmobiles.Thanks Guys,Howard Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povertycove Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 It's not a Saxon, that's for sure.Alex HuppeSaxonmotorcars.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layden B Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Sure has some Hupp features but I am unable to see the caps plainly enough to be positive about an H. The radiator neck on Hupp has a distinctive taper which I cannot see. Is the radiator front bullnose like this 1917 Grant? The Grant is no absolute match either.

hddennis Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 Layden, until this picture arrives in my mailbox, this is the only image I have. I'm hoping the original offers more detail. Too be continued early next year.........................Howard Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrModelT Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 It certainly started life a 1916 or '17 Hupmobile Model N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
