ShawnLancaster Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I found this postcard with a unique sporty speedabout and I think from about 1910 or so. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Looks like a 1912 Mercer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AHa Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 That's not a round gas tank behind the seat. Looks more like a tool box. Gas tank is evidently in the box beneath. That spare tire looks very large and the seat is on a riser, not on the frame. The hood is long, it may house a six. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Gillingham Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 To me it looks like a separate third seat behind the front seats; the body style is called a Rumble Runabout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldcarfudd Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 The gray car is a Ford Model K roadster, 6 cylinders, guaranteed to do 60 mph. Certainly the fender and hood lines look like the one's in the original post. Rob Heyen in Nebraska has one of these and has done extensive research into them from original sources. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnLancaster Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 Very cool - that is one amazing car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob H. Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I’m 99% certain it’s a 1907/08 Ford Model K Roadster. The battery/tool boxes were mounted on either side running board. In addition to fender and body lines, the two straps holding down the trunk/rumble seat are similar: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass is Best Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I agree that it is a Model K Ford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
