Your request is a very tough order these days. The teens and 20's electrics are much easier to locate than the early ones. Though I suspect you already know that. The only one that I know of available at the moment is in St.Louis. I believe that it is a 1903 Columbia. I am not positive but think it is the Victoria style runabout body style. It is a restored car and appears quite nice. It is being offered by Mark Hyman a classic car dealer in St.Louis. I can tell you that these early Columbia electrics are great cars to drive (I have an 05) and quite easy to operate. Good luck in your search.

The nice thing about an open car is that you can get it into a standard height garage door verses I think you need a 9 foot for most closed cars

 I found this ex. William Harrah 1904 Pope-Waverley just last month, had been up on stands collecting dust for decades. Good luck on your search, they are still out there.

The Pope Waverley is beautiful.  Just the simple style i;m looking for.  you have been blessed.
