Josh.C Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) I am not to good with older cars, I collect alot of old photos and came across these and was just curious what models. Thanks Car 2 list as "The Hudson" may 1931, not sure if the non-wrecked car is the same model as the 2 that show wrecked.

nzcarnerd Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The first pic is of two Ford Model Ts, could be as late as 1924. The crashed car is a 1927 Essex. In the same photo the woman is sitting on an early 1920s Chevrolet. Next one is a Ford Model A Sport Coupe. The wire wheel sedan is a 1931 Chevrolet. The touring with the unusual rear window shape is a Cleveland from around 1920. The round radiator car is an Oldsmobile from the late teens/early 1920s. Might be one of the V8 models.

keiser31 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 First two are Ford Ts about mid 1920s. Wrecked car looks to be maybe a Lincoln. Looks like a Model T Ford next to that. Ford Model A 1928-29. 1930-31 Chevrolet #4. Cleveland #5. 1923 or so Oldsmobile #6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The windshield mounting on the Olds make it a bit earlier. Probably around 1918 and more likely a V8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh.C Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 Ya the olds came out grouping from a ww1 soldier and the photo shows him in his 20s so that sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Henderson Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) Car #2 looks too big for an Essex. If the front door is in fact rear hinged, I wouldn't rule out it being about a '26 Hudson. The fender ridge lines look right. (can't tell for sure about the hinging of the front door though, it almost looks like hinges are at the front). I think the Chevy Sedan is a '30, based on the hood louvers.

You are right in both cases. The Hudson has the triangles on the hubcaps. Not exactly sure of the date but because it has no front brakes could be as late as 1926.

No need for that Keiser 31 with your strike rate/knowledge you are allowed an occasional error. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Henderson Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 nzcarnerd, Keiser, No fretting allowed, your humility is admirable. Your "99.97" percent correct identifications look pretty darn good, I'm still awed by your knowledge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
