Who can ID this Early Car from DORCHESTER , MASS ?

Dear Friends,

The Local Dorchester Historical Society would like

to know, the Year and Make of this old car.

This was owned by the prominent WALES family in

Dorchester, Mass just out side Boston. ( Today part of Boston.)

Thank You for your help.

Air cooled CORBIN built in New Britain, Connecticut @1906. GREAT photos, thanks for posting them. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

The Corbin Touring Car looks like 1905 Model D. I'd be interested to know where it lived, being as I am "Originally From Dorchester".

Dear 1937HD45,

I had been e-mailed the photos by my Cadillac Lasalle Club buddy,

"Cadmanjoe" in Boston. After I posted it this morning,

before work, I e-mailed him the link and jokingly...

said "We should have an answer by Noon today !"

Thanks for proving me CORRECT ! ...and with twenty minutes to spare !

I don't have my copy of the "OLD TESTAMENT" near this computer.

As I often refer to the essential

"Standard Catalogue of Early American Cars"

by Beverley Kimes et al.

But NO DOUBT you too, like to read a few chapters from the "Good Book"

every evening before retiring, and again upon arising in the Morning,

as I do. After all one must remain devout to one's religion must'nt we !

Thanks again,

Tailfin58

Western, Mass.

BTW Find any good CORBIN info sites on the Web ?
