Looks like a 1900 Locomobile steamer.

I just said it looks like one (which it does)!
If it's not, it could be anything including the modern "Likamobile" copy as US-built steam buggies are all quite similar.
Not a Stanley, as that had semi-elliptic front springs which this hasn't.

Do the brand was active in 1902?
Title: Re: PN #1034
Post by: pnegyesi on October 06, 2017, 11:22:27 PM
yes, the brand was active in 1902.

BUT

I made a mistake: it was sold in England, but the car was produced in America. I am sorry about this. Apparently this is a repost, the original car has appeared on AP before. If you find the British brand, you'll get a point and the puzzle will be merged.

Really sorry.
