Hi Kiwi,

Welcome to the forum.

If you are having problems with posting photos then just post the web address for your photo(s).

I reckon that's an 11hp Humber circa 1912.

Those strange hub caps and the radiator certainly match..

Your photo shows a radiator with a straight horizontal top to the mesh but the early Crossley has a top shaped around badge. Also the car in the photo has rather distinctive hubs matched by Mike's suggestion but different to the Crossley.

Hi Peter

Thanks for your reply - Interesting detail!
We don't see many of these older models here in New Zealand !

Regards

Richard
