Re: A last look
I do hope we will hear from you occasionally? I also hope all is well in your life?
We certainly do enjoy all these photos you find and share! For that, I and we thank you! However, one must do what one must do. So, regardless, we wish you well, always.
The second and fourth photos both appear to be Canadian touring cars, circa 1921.

Re: A last look
The D Wilkin and Company van is likely an English bodied car, typical of the way their vans were styled. It appears to be a RHD 1915 model. The partially blacked out headlights were a WW 1 response. The spare wheel is a Stepney wheel. It clamps to the rim of the flat tyre and allows the car to be driven without having to make a repair on the side of the road. I had one but never had occasion to use it.

Re: A last look
Thanks too, Tom for all your wonderful pictures. Wow that takes a lot of time. They have often answered questions if not settled arguments about how things would look on these cars. There's a '13 in one of your pics that shows the correct top boot no doubt this being an original, showing the "flap" at the top forefront on the side. Many repo boots do not have this, and I made sure mine did when I had Mike fab it for me. Thanks again and good luck on your next adventure! And like they say..."you'll be back"!!

Re: A last look
Yes, as always wonderful pictures. I especially like the two-cyl REO in the last one.
Thanks so much
