I agree with Joe that it has a Cadillac look including the rear hub caps. Can't tell about the front ones. Might be damaged. Not sure on year.

sagefinds Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 If Cadillac it would have to 14 being right hand drive. Cowl lights are wrong and wheels don't have enough wedges as a Cad would have unless they've been changed. That ugly green thing doesn't have a stock hood or radiator shell of a Cadillac.

Ariejan NL Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 The only car I could find that fits the shape of radiator, front axle, spring horns and wheel hubs was the 1910-1912 Velie. Uploaded a surviving 1912 roadster for comparison. After 1912 the front axle shape was different. The body of the limousine may have been a later modification.

Lee H Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 (edited) Whatever it is, the radiator surround might be the same make as in this photo of a 1913 NYC taxicab. And the license plate here looks to be NY as well. Edited February 25 by Lee H (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariejan NL Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 That NY taxi is an Alco taxi, which apparently kept its 1908 appearance till at least 1913, probably even longer. All features I mentioned above are different, including the fenders (which are still wing shaped here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
