It nearly looks like Michael Schlenger week! Here another fine pic from his rich resources:
"Today I'd like to hear your opinion regarding the large phaeton with two charming ladies on the picture.
I assume this car was built around 1910 and its body style reflects earlier models which still had the radiator behind the engine (like Charron, Clement-Bayard etc.). But if one takes a closer look, one can see a filler cap on the front end which means the filler cap on the bulkhead must connect with the fuel reservoir, not the radiator.
The German manufacturer Brennabor (conam.nl) built a similar-looking car from 1910 onwards. It was a rather conventional but well-made model (10/24 hp, later 10/28 hp). Yet, while the overall appearance is similar, some details just don't fit.
The inner part of the front wings of the car on the picture goes down vertically and not in a curved line like with the Brennabor. Also, the engine hood is aligned horizontally, not slightly sloping. Finally, the wire wheels as well make me believe it's a car from a different manufacturer.
Could this be a French car, instead? The two elegant looking ladies would support this assumption, in my opinion.
Any ideas or even the solution of this mystery?
