I have it a little earlier. And you mention the name of the involved companies, but not the name of this particular car.
Locked for you until your next reply

That's it, well done Joćo!

Quote
Der erste Pomeroy wurde auf Veranlassung der Aluminium Company of America (ALCOA) 1920-1922 in Buffalo, New York, von der American Body Co. gebaut, die ebenfalls zu ALCOA gehörte. Konstruiert von Laurence H. Pomeroy, bekannt geworden durch seine Arbeiten für Vauxhall und Entwicklung des V12-Motors für Daimler in Coventry, und seinem Kollegen Forrest F. Cameron, wies der Wagen eine Aluminium-Karosserie und auch ein überwiegend aus Aluminium bestehendes Chassis auf; der Vierzylindermotor war ebenfalls aus Leichtmetall und hatte 2718 ccm Hubraum. Es gab auch eine Ausführung mit 3723 ccm. Nur vier Fahrzeuge wurden in Buffalo gebaut; einige weitere entstanden 1923-1924 bei Pierce-Arrow am gleichen Ort. Diese Wagen hatten einen 75 PS starken Sechszylinder-Aluminiummotor (4078 ccm) wie im Pierce-Arrow-Modell 80. Der Pomeroy diente nur zur Promotionzwecken für ALCOA, ein Verkauf war nicht vorgesehen. Anderen Herstellern die Baurechte anzudienen, schlug fehl, denn ALCOA bedingte sich die Lieferung des Rohmaterials aus, und sich in eine solche Abhängigkeit zu begeben schien wenig reizvoll zu sein.

Translated via Google:
The first Pomeroy was built at the instigation of the Aluminum Company of America (ALCOA) from 1920 to 1922 in Buffalo, New York, from the American Body Co., which also belonged to ALCOA. Designed by Laurence H. Pomeroy, known for his work for Vauxhall and development of the V12 engine for Daimler in Coventry, and his colleague, Forrest F. Cameron, the car had an aluminum body and a predominantly aluminum-made chassis; the four-cylinder engine was also made of aluminum and had 2718 cc displacement. There was also a version with 3723 cc. Only four cars were built in Buffalo, and some more came in 1923-1924 Pierce-Arrow in the same place. These cars had a 75 hp six-cylinder aluminum engine (4078 cc) as in the Pierce-Arrow model 80 The Pomeroy served only for promotional purposes for ALCOA, a sale was not planned. Other manufacturers, the construction rights to serve failed because ALCOA related to the delivery of raw materials, and to go into such a dependency seemed to be less attractive.
