ANTIQUE CAR SHOW PT2

Another oldie was this Earl, built during the early '20s.



The informational plaque on the front of the car. During this time period, many cars were built by individuals, some of whose names still grace the fronts of todays cars -Ford, Chevrolet and Dodge are three of them.



This is an Oakland. Judging by the 'coachwork' body, this car is probably pre-WW1 (but don't hold me to that!). In the days before engine starters the hand crank below the radiator was used. At least it wasn't a pull cord!



Another Oakland was right beside it, this one a newer model from the post-war era.



According to the ticket, it was built in 1919.
