ok I'll bite...strictly a guess.  Studebaker?  Is the picture old enough for that 67/68 Chrysler convertible at the curb to be new, or is it a visitor to the museum and merely parked out front?

Not a Studebaker, and I believe the picture to be contemporary.

The name of this car (make and model) includes the names of two cities on the periphery of one of the Great Lakes.

Perhaps the a view of the rear of this car will help?

No, but a decent guess.

Anyone else?

Howsabout a 1895 Chicago Motor Benton Harbor Motocycle, or "Chicmo-benharmo" as they were known at the time.

The air's cleaner up here, and more's the view.

Although, at $3 a gallon, I can't really justify running the engines these days, so I just let this old dirigible drift where the wind takes me.



That's usually East, BTW.

Would that be true in the Southern Hemisphere?

The Benton Harbor was built by brothers Louis and Albert Baushke, and was powered by a 2-cylinder 7.5hp petrol engine. It did not have an engine lubrication system, so the pistons would freeze in the cylinder blocks, seizing the engine.
