Could be - again the position of the fuel filler is about right, but did the Vauxhalls have that double moulding round the rear window?

any idea what this wooden spoke wheel is from?
It looks like they used a smoke wrench or hacksaw to remove it from the front axle.

Hi SAKs vary in length between 58 mm (2.3 in), 74 mm (2.9 in), 84 mm (3.3 in), 91 mm (3.6 in), 93 mm (3.7 in), 100 mm (3.9 in), 108 mm (4.3 in) and 111 mm (4.4 in) lengths when closed.
So Scaling the picture gives somewhere between 14" and 27" for the rim diameter.
So, which knife do you have?

I got a good laugh out of that question, cheers Penman
It is my trusty Victorinox Officer 91mm closed 6 1/4" open
the radius of the steel rim is 24 inches to the outside lip and 20" to where the rubber tire sits
looks to be 1 3/4 where the inside of the tire sits

Hi
This link shows that the Model H Cadillac had 24" Wooden, 12 spoke, artillery wheels.

This doesn't prove it is Cadillac but does, perhaps, give an idea to vehicle size and date range

Any idea what these are from or for?

aftermarket glass tail light lenses most likely from a American car


looks like it came off a pretty small 4 cylinder engine

It looks to me to be a 12-4 Harley possibly 1933-35

It's too hazy to be sure, but I think the script on the radiator is in two lines, in which case it's a 12/6 (still a Harley!).

I think you are right Mike and I should have spotted that as my grandfather at one time had a 12/6 Harley. Its registration was something 986 so not the car in the photo. Referred to as a Harley haystacks but I'm not sure why. Perhaps just a height reference?

Hello Da Tow'd,

The inlet manifold and carburettor are off a Model T Ford, probably one built between 1917 and 1923.
