All of the photos I can find of these kinds of Checkers seem to have a pair of headlights mounted to the very front of the car and the Chicago Yellow Cabs only seem to have the lights mounted on the hood, like this one. If I'm wrong, I'm all for an education in how to tell these cars apart. http://www.classiccarweekly.net/2014/09/29/early-taxi/ -- Last edit: 2015-01-06 21:53:59
