Commander 57 ◊ 2011-02-25 01:39	Indeed! There's no mistaking that front.
OldCArS ◊ 2011-02-27 17:27	I think same car in episode 05.20
OldCArS ◊ 2011-03-03 09:55	Better image in episode 06.05
Commander 57 ◊ 2011-03-03 15:08	Looks like the 1927 to 1928 narrow A-pillar style.
nzcarnerd ◊ 2011-03-25 05:47	This is a 1928 Franklin. Compare it with this page - /vehicle_223227-Franklin-1928.html 1928 ws the first year to not have the windshield visor that is so prominent on 1927 and earlier models.
Commander 57 ◊ 2011-03-25 14:41	Don't know about that. My Burness shows the same visor style for '27 and '28 but a smaller style for '29. Perhaps the car in the photo is incorrect in that regard.
nzcarnerd ◊ 2011-10-03 01:59	I have had cause to rethink this one. Note that there is a small circle inside the large circle of the grill. That makes it a series 11. The narrow windshield pillars make it late 1926 or 1927.
