keiser31 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Looks almost like a 1925 Chevrolet with different fenders and body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 The car is small. Definitely European. Looks sort of like a Citroen.Manuel in Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TG57Roadmaster Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 The tires are Goodrich Balloons, if that helps.The dress appears to be a knock-off of Simplicity, Pattern #2654, if that helps. TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erndog Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 That bush in the background may be a large elderberry, if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Casper Friedrich Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I think we can rule out Temperino. It was a smaller car, different kind of disc-wheels with five lug nuts etc. Clover-leaf seating would have been the normal, but I haven't seen a picture of a newer one that 1921.

Juha Paavo Kaita Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Here is a close up of top of the windshield stanchion. I do not think it says "Torino". I also enclose a close up of the hub. It also seems like the top is somehow locked when at place on windhield frame tops. There is close up also of radiator mascot. The radiator top is rounded like Kissel Kar but I don´t think this is Kissel Kar. We had some Killsels in Finland, too.Juha KaitanenTurku, Finland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron hausmann Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 All,This car is too short to be a Kissel. Kissels also did't use disc wheels, even as options, until much later.Ron Hausmann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
