wayne sheldon Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Oh nasty. Someone needs fencing instruction. Looks like a nearly new Oldsmobile, Can't make out the year on the license plate, but the car might be about 1926? Several people standing there staring at the wreckage. I hope nobody was seriously hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt G Posted September 3 Author Share Posted September 3 17 hours ago, keiser31 said: I wonder if this 1927 Lincoln is the same car? Has to be - only one was made and appeared first at the custom body salons in 1927 and in advertising by Judkins who created it. I have the original artwork/illustration/rendering of the car that was used in the Lincoln magazine and sales portfolio as well as the salon program advertising. Art work is opaque water color and fairly large and was found in an antique store in Ct. by a friend of mine who immediately called me and asked "do you want it" ? Car wound up in a southern Ca. collection /garage before Harrah's bought and restored it. It was in fairly good condition when found. the car in pictures is striking but in person is even more outstanding . A total comment on the horseless carriage era and transition to motorized vehicle chassis. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeff_a Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Here's a little-known photo of a '23 Peerless Model 66 Phaeton taken from the side. A similar shot is well-known, taken from the front, of the same women and their V8 4- passenger car. These were $3,000 cars. source: Jalopy Journal 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure it isn't (probably?),but a few details that can be seen are very close to my circa 1899 unknown builder gasoline carriage. I sure would like to see more of this car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt G Posted September 7 Author Share Posted September 7 14 hours ago, jeff_a said: Ivy Cummings and her mother in their race car...Brooklands, 1920. The Brooklands track in Surrey England still exists! The Brooklands Society has had annual reunions there for years and at one tie surviving race drivers that drove on the track when it was being used attended. I have been to the reunions and they are spectacular. It was a concrete track with banked area t the top edge to let the race cars gain speed , also had a test hill at centre.
