allcars Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 What have we here? It is a big car, with a somewhat unusual-for-the-time bustle-back four-door touring car body—which we like, as it happens. Similar but different when compared to four-door bustle back Pierce-Arrow and Haynes touring body styles that were likely contemporaries. Left-hand drive. Note both front and rear doors latch at the center pillar. Looks to us to be about 1918-1920 vintage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allcars Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share Posted July 25, 2023 Varun Coutinho, you have once again amazed us with your fantastic ability to identify the most obscure cars. Thank you! I am pleased to know we have added a Dorris of this vintage to our automotive images collection. As the serial numbers for 1920 and 1921 Dorris cars indicate only 537 were produced in total over those two years, our snapshot image presumably offers a fairly rare view of such a car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
