Cars waiting for passengers to disembark from the daily ferry from Wellington. Most of the cars are readily identifiable but the big sedan with the three-bar bumper is still a mystery. It has been suggested to me that the three bar bumper car might be a Paige.

The photo is from an Undiscovered Classics article on the vehicle. Interesting read. Edited July 6 by 57Classic (see edit history) 1
A Woolf Posted July 7 Posted July 7 American Underslung 50 hp chassis. A Scout is to the left and behind the chassis. I believe this photo would date from 1912. 7

nzcarnerd Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Even though this Australian postcard photo was taken post WW2 most of the vehicles in it are pre-war. On the right is a Willys 77 roadster, a body style not built by the US factory as far as I know. These were bodied by Holdens who, even though they became part of GM in 1931, continued to build bodies for other makes most of the way through the 1930s. My Holden history book says they made just over 300 roadster bodies for Willys in the 1934-37 period. I am not sure what the convertible on the left of the photo is. In the far background is a circa 1947 Chevrolet coupe utility. 4

It appears to have an after-market crank handle holder down by the radiator. The front wheels look a little odd. I think they are after-market Firestone type (made by several companies including Perlman) demountable rim wheels. Zooming in, I am fairly sure I can see two lug clamps for the rims. Ford did not offer demountable wheels until about 1919, at which point they became standard equipment on the sedan and coupe models. Demountable wheels became an option for runabouts and touring cars a few months later in mid 1919 model year. It appears to be inside an automobile supplies store. Makes me wonder what other accessories the car may have off camera? Edited July 11 by wayne sheldon I hate leaving typos! (see edit history) 4
