OK, I know this is a very ordinary-looking car of its era, but I liked its make name so much I had to use it!

Is it an Alldays and Onions of about 1904?

Nope -- good sporting guess, though. You're close on the year, but the name isn't funny in quite the way you're thinking. (Besides which, the make name from the Alldays & Onions company seems to have just been "Alldays.")

Yes! That's it! (And you even got why I thought it was funny!)
