Mark Wetherbee Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) These all look alike once the emblem is removed, but hopefully someone will recognize this shell. The overall dimensions are 24-2/2” wide x 30-1/2” high, x 4-1/4” deep with the radiator opening measuring 19-3/4” wide x 19-1/4” high. The back has an unusual inner shield to hold the radiator, and the lacing was only riveted on as opposed to woven into slots in the shell. If anyone has an idea of what vehicle this might fit I would love to know. Thank you for looking!

It’s very similar, but the Maxwell looks to have a sharper radius from the front to the sides. Thank you for the thoughts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Wetherbee Posted August 22, 2021 Author Share Posted August 22, 2021 Found it, thanks Kaiser! I kept searching similar vehicles to the Maxwell until I got a match… REO From the early 20’s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My father collected emblems and this is going to be a display for those to go in like a picture frame for my garage wall. I had originally thought it was from a Maxim fire truck but the emblem didn’t fit the holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
