This mystery car from page 218 is a 1903 Knox built in Springfield, MA. I'm surprised that edinmass didn't recognize it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne sheldon Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) A future Pebble Beach Best of Show Winner. It is always extra interesting to see really nice original era photographs of special cars when they were new, and then to see a nice photo of the car in recent years. Especially when they have been restored to such a high standard, and being rewarded for what they are. I do question the color however. While I very much like the color it is now, and would consider it to be an appropriate color for a car of that era, the original photograph shows what appears to be a much lighter color. Then again, many high end automobiles in that era were repainted in new colors very early in their lives. So one may wonder just what the original color was, or what other colors it may have been while still nearly new. I have always liked Isotta Fraschini automobiles, even though most of them appear to be newer than my primary eras of interest. Not sure why. Although there are quite a few European classics I like. Thank you all for the postings. Edited June 20, 2020 by wayne sheldon Wouldn't "quote" the photo? (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
