Time for a little clue - the marque is in the area between Cunningham and Meteor

Yes indeed from around the mid 1900s to the early 1930s.
They produced cars, commercial vehicles, taxis, ambulances, hearses, etc.

Sure!  ;)

"In 1923,Kissel introduced the 18­passenger "Coach Limited," a bus styled like the pass­enger car line, with double drop frame and 20-inch disc wheels. Wheelbase of this "stretched sedan" was 202 inches."

Apologies for the slow reply Joao but you are absolutely correct.
Another point for you.
I'll probably be posting some more small passenger vehicles of a similar age in future.
