REO?

[Peter Ouwersloot]

Hi, I'm Peter and I wonder if the forms can help me out. 

I was shown the attached photograph and asked what the brandname of the car is, I'm pretty sure that it's a REO 1925, can you help me out?

 

Regards,

Peter (from the Netherlands)

The nickeled radiator shell points to 1927 or 1928, but yes, it's a REO Flying Clound.

And by the way, the name "Reo" doesn't need to

be in all capital letters.  Even though R. E. O. are the

initials for the man Ransom E. Olds, the car's name

was often written as simply "Reo":

Thank you again, Frank. I found some pictures of the car where it says it's a 1926 Reo T6, and a picture of the same car from 1925.

The one from 1926 doesn't have the nickeled radiator shell, the one from 1925 does have the nickeled radiator?

I used to own a 1926 Reo T6 Sedan I could tell the year by the hubcaps, corners on the fenders were square and head lights as I believe they changed those items in 1927 when the Flying Clouds came out 

Here is picture of a 1925 Reo
