nzcarnerd Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Obviously an early Ford T in the middle, and an electric following it. The car in front must be from around 1905-06 with that style of front fenders, and its steering gear mounted forward of the axle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 It has been suggested to me that the car at the front is a Columbia - probably 1905-1906. I wonder if that is an electric of the same make at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) The pictures look like they were taken on Belle Isle in Detroit. Looks like the Anna Scripps conservatory. https://www.belleisleconservancy.org/anna-scripps-whitcomb-conservatory Edited December 29, 2017 by Larry Schramm (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass is Best Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I would have to agree those photos were taken on Belle Isle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelt1913touring Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I don't think the car in front is a 1905 - 6 Columbia. The radiator shape looks a lot like a 1905 Thomas Flyer, but I don't think that is what it is either. Attached is a picture of a 1906 Columbia. The radiator shape is totally different.

nzcarnerd Posted February 4, 2018 Author Share Posted February 4, 2018 Columbia obviously had a major styling change for 1906. Here is a 1905 ad - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Henderson Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) The front car could be a White, ca.1906 and the last possibly an electric. Edited February 7, 2018 by Dave Henderson (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
