nzcarnerd Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Posted today on a facebook page. Date probably circa 1921-23 by the drum lights. The plate is not easy to read. The radiator badge looks to me like a knight's helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldford Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Found this photo of a 1920 Willys-Knight. Very similar hood and radiator but different headlights and windshield. Fenders look similar also... I found another post of the exact same car listed as a 1917, so who knows...

nzcarnerd Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 It has been suggested elsewhere that this might be a Durant - nothing to do with Knights. I have still not worked out exactly which model it is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I was thinking Durant, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a little more research I think the mystery car is a Sport Touring from 1923. The regular models didn't have the cowl lights - I think. This is a 'plain' touring, and because of its head lamps I think it is the earlier 1921-22 model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldford Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 The radiator shell on the original car seems to be more arched than the Durant above. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 This is a 1923 Durant Model A-22 Touring Car, 35 hp, 4 cyl. OHV Engine. At least that is what it was auctioned as.... http://www.paisleyauctions.com/auction22/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
