The writing on the yellow car indicated to me, it was in a car museum in Brazil.  The red 1960 Thunderbird and the Rolls-Royce or Bentley behind them might help as well.

I really don´t have any information if this car really was made in USA, or if it was a recreation, but it´s from an American brand. One point for the one who find this brand

The more you learn, the more you realise how little you know.

Wild guess time: 1914 Mitchell Speedster...at least as the basis for the car.

Any connection to Pontiac?

A reply would be very welcome.  I'd sure like to see this one solved...along with a few others...mainly out of curiosity.  Like how the car got to that part of the world and how it grew its custom bodywork.

RayTheRat

OK. I think I've found it.  A 1909 Reo Gentleman's Roadster:

Can we bump this one up, please?

:bump:

sixtee5cuda

Well, they are both yellow

RayTheRat

Yeah.  I didn't notice the wooden firewall (oxymoron?), not to mention the other differences until after I'd posted it.

D-Type is right, it´s a Locomobile.
