nzcarnerd Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Looks like a British Triumph from around 1912. I see what looks like Arabic on the registration plate - maybe in one of the Middle Eastern British colonial possessions?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 This one makes frequent appearances on facebook. There are those who think it is photoshopped but I think it is for real. Location the end of the St Angelo bridge in Rome looking towards the Castel Sant'Angelo. We were driven across that bridge on our Rome city bus tour in 2014. It is only a short distance from St Peters. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a Tracta but an Austrian Steyr XII built between 1926 and 1929. Rear axle of swing type à la Trumph Spitfire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hddennis Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Just stumbled across this on eBay and was tempted to buy it just for the Old 16 story not only because the car and area are connected to my youth but also I lived there for years and never knew Carmel, NY once had a fairgrounds and a race track. Anyone have any other photos relating to this?

Walt G Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 1 hour ago, 30DodgePanel said: So that's where all the 36 Dodge grilles went... I wonder if this isn't possibly a view how cars were shipped from the auto manufacturers across the Great lakes to Buffalo, NY to unload onto train cars to then disburse them to assorted cities in the North East section of the USA. The regular use of tractor trailers to haul new cars across the country was not really well established until Eisenhower became President and the national highway system was worked on/ built to accommodate seriously and promote transportation. Up until that time delivery by train was the way things were done, cars arriving n box cars ( I have period photos of that someplace of Packards being delivered in 1932) or there were also big" drive-aways" , where hoards of men would take the train to the city where the cars were built and then get in and have a "drive away" of 50+ cars all at one to deliver cars to the dealerships. I know Chevrolet did that as did Franklin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Chevrolet did that as did Franklin. Exactly right, the Detroit made batch headed for Buffalo with hundreds of drive-away men doing their part along the way... Good ship Sonoma of the Nicholson Universal Line dated June 23 1936 Would love to see those Packards being unloaded if you come across your lot.
