alsfarms Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 Here is a picture of a "new" ebay purchase. It is a 1913 and newer oil pressure gauge in a brass case. It will find a use!!! Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 I noticed a nice dash picture of the White 1913 Model M car shown on the Locomobile 38 and 48 gathering place forum. This gauge shown above is used on the pictured white Locomobile. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard is well known to those of us who know Old 16, the Vanderbilt cup races, Locomobile, and early pre-WWI races.. You might try googling his name along with Old 16. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted November 21, 2019 Author Share Posted November 21, 2019 Hello Al and Al. Howard did a nice job putting toogether some nice vintage pictures of Old 16 and music in the background to help make the nostalgic effect! Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted November 21, 2019 Author Share Posted November 21, 2019 I was thinking, hmmmm, my Locomobile could have been in the factory at the time the 1908 Vanderbilt cup was run. That is a fun thought! Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted November 26, 2019 Author Share Posted November 26, 2019 I have just received another Locomobile document, EBAY purchase, that relates to this 4 cylinder Locomobile Gathering Place. I will share a page a day for your Locomobile education and enjoyment, regarding the full Locomobile production lineup that I think is for the years 1905 and 1906 and will have some similarities with 1907 also. I welcome any comments you care to share. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about the clarity, the print is small and I tried several times to get a better print. Copyright 1905 by the Locomobile company..

alsfarms Posted December 27, 2019 Author Share Posted December 27, 2019 Page 31 (last page) Here is the last page of the "Show and Tell" of the original 1905 Locomobile sales Brochure. If I run across any additional pieces of interest I will show them here. Maybe if you have some unmarked early automobile parts, maybe the information I have share here will help to identify your pieces and maybe end up helping to restore another early Locomobile.

alsfarms Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 Does anyone happen to know how similar the Model F shown above is to the Model I's? Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHa Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) I would like to revisit this Locomobile in the light of the pictures posted from this brochure. The length of the hood makes me think model F but the rear hub is nothing like the hub of the F. The shaft drive type L had rear hubs like this so I wonder if this car has type L rear wheels.
