Guest im2193 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I found this car (image: http://goo.gl/jQ68U) in an abandoned garage in Detroit this year. The last patent listed in the image is #1,640,118 which was patented in 1927 (Patent US1640118 - VALVE MECHAKISM FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES - Google Patents). Does anyone have a way of telling when this car was made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I'm sure if you post a picture of the actual car we can tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCHinson Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 A photo of the car instead of just the patent plate would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pomeroy41144 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Looking at the patent plate and the shape of the firewall, I am guessing 1934 Ford. This photo is of the firewall/dash of a 1934 Ford I shot at the Auburn, Indiana, EFV-8 Meet.
