m-mman Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I am thinking this has a GM look to it, Buick came to mind, but the radiator to cowl is completely straight. No outside handles, space between doors (7 pass?) Is that thing on the running board in front of the rear wheel a light or a suspension/spring access point? The solid top might be a "Detroit Weatherproof" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) It looks a bit like the Kissels you can read about in the Our Cars and Restoration Projects forum, but with a modified top.

nzcarnerd Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) I reckon it is a Paige from around 1918-19 - the larger model 6-55 (127" wb). Edited September 21, 2017 by nzcarnerd (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 The hub caps very much looks like Paige. Leif in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-mman Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 I am thinking that you are correct. This just might be "The Most Beautiful Car in America". . . . The use of Bowl headlights during the time when others were using drums, adds to the suspicion. I will attribute the vertical windshield to a modification made to accommodate the accessory solid top.

nzcarnerd Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Drum headlights are from an era later than this car - more like 1922 or later. Those lights are typical of the late teens. On this car the coarse hood louvres also date it. Soon after that time most went to finer louvres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-mman Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 Hummmmm . . . Thanks. The late teens and early twenties is an unfamiliar to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
