Re: what other old cars are in your garage?

Woofa, I guess you are referring to the number plate? It is a copy of the decayed original leather using the original brass numbers. It may be registered and insured for limited use only

Re: what other old cars are in your garage?

Ronn, This little car is the 1899 Stanley Bros. design. It is the seventh steamer I've owned and my favorite, the rest were Stanley's too, 1903 -1919.
