Not mine, just passing along for anyone interested.  I will say, this looks like a lot of fun this era and price point.............

 

The ad has a video of it being driven.

John, Thanks for posting this car. Very interesting. I guess many (most?) cars of the teens had priming cups, but this one has the remote operated one, which I think is very rare. Also, notice the size of the fuel shutoff valve. It seems far bigger than necessary. Probably someone's replacement?

It's a noisemaker.

"It's a noisemaker." Well, the makes sense. That possibility didn't occur to me. Should have. Thanks.

Oh it has a name, I just can't remember it at the moment. I'm surprised someone hasn't jumped in with a better ID.

 

EDIT: Explosion whistle.
