Is it the Curtis Motor Car co. from Little Rock, Arkansas, that in 1921 realized a car with parts coming from different cars and an Herschell-Spillman engine?

Strangely addictive isn't it?
I was going to stop for a bit, but I'll just have 8521 first, please

KIRK MANUFACTURING COMPANY

The Kirk Manufacturing Co. of Toledo, Ohio made the Yale motorcar and I think this is their 1903 model:

You are too good!
According to my source they were active in 1899 but production was not proven that year.

Can I have 3442 please

CM MOCHET
This looks ambiguous.  It could be:
(1)  The CM cyclecar produced by Charles Mochet, Saint-Ouen, Seine from 1929-1930, or
(2)  The Mochet minicar produced by Charles Mochet, Pateaux, Seine from 1951 to 1958

I'll plump for (2) and go for the 1957 175cc model

you are right, it is ambiguous. I use to collect together also different brands under a single name to have at once the info, but just in rare cases and they are easily recognizeable. In this case I meant both.
