This photo is just wonderful, here we have the happy driver posing with his cigar, googles and cap on in what appears to be a fine, circa 1910 seven-passenger touring car. We have seen this type of open-grated metal running board before, as shown on this car and it maybe what you our readers can use to help us identify this car?

Another interesting feature in the photo is the tire cover, with advertising that appears to spell out, Seely-Van Zandt Co. and below it, Auto Supply.

After a bit of searching we were able to find a listing for the firm, which was in Los Angeles, seen below in a 1909 issue of The Motor Cyclopaedia.

Perhaps using all of these clues our readers will be able to identify the car, that reader Mark Agnor’s Great Grand Father was driving?
