It's a Cadillac, that's all I can say. With the optional nickel-plated drum headlights introduced in 1920, but this car looks newer than that. I would date it at 1922-23, but I'd need a Caddy expert to tell more. Cadillac model names, numbers and years require expert knowledge to tell them apart, and don't get me started on the body styles and series!

@Gamer: I really like your dedication! :)

A look into Link to "www.amazon.de" tells me you're pretty close: The 1922-23 Type 61 or the 1924-25 Type V-63 might be the solution, but that's all I can spot right now, as we don't even see what's up behind the driver's seat.

(BTW. You should totally get that book - there is a ridiculously inexpensive used copy available at the moment (€ 18,80). I'm not the seller, but I absolutely recommend the book, as it has always been one of my main tools and you hardly find them for less than € 50.)

Thanks! :)

I began studying these old American cars last fall, and specialize in any American iron between 1895-1931. The elaborate tailfin era and beyond is out of my depth.
