Juha Paavo Kaita Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi, This photo of automobile was published in FB-page here in Finlland. The page is for postcards and old photos showing seeneris of city of Turku. I am trying to identify the make of the car. To me it looks quite large - maybe 7-passenger Touring. The steering wheel is on right side of the car. So the make can be European or early US. Somebody said that it could be Essex but it looks little too large to be Essex. Any ideas of the make of this early car is greatly wellcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Compare it with this one - I would say, yes, it is an Essex. Remember people were smaller than and the mystery car is not really a seven passenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wac Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 In Finland, it's a 1919 Essex (based on the headlight shape), a 5-passenger touring, export model (RHD), body by Fisher. The NZ car is probably a 1920 Essex (again based on the headlight shape), also a 5-passenger touring, export model (RHD), body by Fisher, but with cowl lights (not on US cars) and accessory second windshield.
