At first glance, it looks like a Model T. |

Not a T. Whatever it is dates from 1913. Might be a Buick Model 25 but not yet sure. -- Last edit: 2014-11-27 18:00:19 |

Andrepa, re your link, I don't consider cartoon car worth commenting on as they are usually only generic cars and not one specific model. If you look at any car from around 1912-14 you can see similarities to that pic. The one distinguishing feature of the Model T Ford is that it has transverse springs. Almost every other car of its era has longitudinal springs. The car in the pic above has longitudinal springs and it also has detachable wheel rims, something Fords did not get until 1919. The car above has right-hand drive, a feature many American makes retained until the early to mid teens. The Ford T was left-hand-drive from the start (October 1908). -- Last edit: 2014-11-28 08:41:10 |

I have had another look at this one and can see now it is not a Buick but is something around the same size. |

Whatever it is, the grille is apparently covered up for the wintertime. I wonder if it's a Buick. |

Anyway, by the tiebar and arched rear fender I think this is a 1913 Studebaker. |

1913 Studebaker looks like a good match. |
