Counterfeit 1907 Thomas Flyer

[trulyvintage]

For those who follow my travels
on Facebook and YouTube,
I am always trying to learn
and share what I discover.

My curiosity led me to Stu Laidlaw
who was familiar with this vehicle
and the history of its creation.

Further research led me to conclude
the engine was of a later manufacture
and from LaFrance, it had been altered
to resemble a 1907 Thomas Flyer as
was the rest of the vehicle.
Forged manufacturer plates had
been attached to the frame and
body and rear differential.
