Hey 1stClass, here's a few pics I found online that were similar to your last avatar. I cropped them square and small but I know how picky this site is about pictures for avatars. I never could get my whole Camaro in the thing. >:-(
but your welcome to try them if you like any of them. Although Drachen might beat you to the Dragon one. LOL

Wellllllllllll........., Kinda, Sorta, but not really. It's had various owners over the years and the manufacturers name that was used on this car was shortened in the early 50's and actually changed altogether in the early 60's.

GOTCHA!! (i think)
The most successful of their time, producing more than 25,000 carriages a year, the company incorporated as the "McLaughlin Carriage Company, Ltd." in 1901.
Under the guidance of "Colonel" Sam McLaughlin, in 1907 the company began the manufacture of automobiles, eventually forming an alliance with William C. Durant, who had acquired the Buick Motor Company, that later would become General Motors.

Hell of an effort but, alas, a better pic wouldn't help because it's not a McLaughlin Carriage, a Buick or (here's a big one) not even a GM!

Nope, not a Horch and it's not Euro or Asian it's a "yankee" production and it's actually from the late 20's.

Not a Ford product, not an Alfa either.

BTW, the badge isn't missing, just photoshopped out.

Go a little more northeast.
