    Thanks for posting this very cool photo, and thank you MrModelT for ID'ing the car. Interesting photo to say the least. I'll have to dig some on the plate, which looks like a home made job but by 1917 I thought all states were issuing plates. Many states allowed owners to make their own plates in the early years (leather was often used). The radiator cap is cool. Check the soldier, with what I think is probably an A3-'03 rifle.

    This was with the photo-

    "28th february 1942
    Car: Nash LaFayette
    Mr. GAVRIIL GAVRILITA, professional driver (since 1929 -19 years old)
    his photo was found recently (23rd June 2010) in the house by me and it's my grandfather in 28th february 1942.
    Concerning the ice (frozen mud), it is due to the low temperature during February month. The picture is taken at the opening of the bridge over Nistru river from Tighina district, at the north-east of Romania, situated at about 550 km from Bucharest.
    On the back of the photo my Grandfather wrote: "Amintire de la Inaugurarea Podului de peste Nistru din Jud. Tighina- 28 Februarie 1942" ("Memory from the opening of the bridge over Nistru from Tighina district- 28th february 1942"
    My Grandfather was born in 10th December 1910 in the nearby of Tighina district. In october 1928 he came in the capital of Romania Bucharest and subscribed at the school of professional drivers. The specialized courses were till november 1929 when he sustained the exams and obtained the driving licence for motobikes,cars and trucks ( A , B , C, categories). In 1941 my Grandfather obtained at the same schoola diploma of first class engineer mechanic-auto.

    I offer this photo to all enthusiast ones over the world,lovely from my grandfather from heaven.

    Greetings from Romania-Bucharest!
