Yes, there's nothing Dodgy about the styling



and this...

 

Absolutely, MrFire. These vehicles that never gained enough
acceptance to get into mainstream production are of special
interest to me! A hell of a lot of creativity displayed, for sure.
Any idea how MANY of these got made -- or if any survive today?
In at least a vague way, this Dodge "milk truck" resembles the
Stout Scarab, just higher profile.

 

From Coachbuilt: http://www.coachbuilt.com/bui/d/dekalb/dekalb.htm
It mentions 1934/35 DeKalb Step Go Milk Body of (on?) Dodge chassis.

This is a .pdf, that is a bit slow to load: http://www.ulib.niu.edu/reghist/RC 254.pdf

"This is Dr. Menzo B. Mattice's new 1909 Winton 6 automobile parked (at left) in front of the Bingham-Holland building in old Woolley. Mattice originally had his office in the old Pioneer block in new Sedro, which was built by Bingham and Holland. The folks in the two autos were: (l. to r.) Mrs. Susie Alverson (owner of music store); Mrs. M. Schneider (husband owned building where bowling alley is today); A.E. Holland, the druggist; Miss Beckie Schneider; Mrs. P.A. Woolley (at the wheel, note it was on the right); auto dealer Mr. Lowe; Charles Harbaugh Jr. (young boy, Mrs. Woolley's grandson); two boys against building unfortunately not identified; Mr. Campbell (chauffeur with Lowe's company, sitting on running board, sported folks around town for a week or two as part of package); car on right side, Junius B. Alexander; Mrs. Florence Morgan (husband owned water company); Mrs. C.C. Harbaugh (Kate, the Woolleys' daughter."

Circa 1930 French 'Sana-Auto'
- "Cienture indispensable!"
----------
Talk about weird and wacky and French eek(!)
- this is a circa 1930 magazine ad from France
for a special 'Sana-Auto' brand girdle made for
women drivers!

I like this pic! Looks as if hard-working Tom operated
a veritable general store on wheels! Even hauled sack
feed along. The hood on the truck throws me. And
anybody know the year or, maybe, wanna guess at
the location?



This pic is THANKS to that great site, American-Automobiles.com!

 

MrFire, keen ad for a rare car, '20-'22 only! Seems a little funny
to me: They fuss over the innovative power plant under the hood,
then beat around the bush taunting style. But when you look ACE
up, they seem to have been assembled cars, using at least three
conventional engines, including a Continental six and fours by
Gray-Bell and Herschell-Spillman.

MORE interesting still, the ACE and the '21 Frontenac sat on the
same 123-inch wheelbase and used the same-displacement six
of 245-CID. Anybody have some familiarity with these two makes
-- and a possible "association"?

A virtually identical view of an ACE, thanks to American-Automobiles.com.

 

Don't you just wish you could get in your Time Machine and show up in Bridgeport Ct. at the Locomobile factory and drive your new car home? What year would this be?

 

Looks like about 1905 or 1906, due to those front fenders. I think this a 1905/'06 Model H Locomobile.

I intend to. Just as soon as I can afford
some quality North American-made
replacements for this latest bad batch of 'flux
capacitors' I got stuck with. The damn things
were defective! Every last one of 'em!! And
they were expensive too. And even worse ,
I'm paying interest on what I had to shell out,
because I had to borrow the whole amount -
which by the way, was almost all of money
that I'm also currently still waiting on to be
transferred into my bank account through a
corrupt Nigerian tax official that I met online!
Please, people - learn from my mistake - if
you're in the market for 10 gigawatt or bigger
'flux capacitors' for your next 'Time Machine'
build, don't ever buy used ones on ebay...and
especially, never, ever, from any ebay vendor
in China!!!
