E24

Actually I got it under E20 name, but after closer look I think my source might be wrong... Any proofs for E24?

by Murphy?

Yes!

I am really not trying to make trouble here, but I have it as a 1924 E-14 with body by Murphy.

Hmmm... Point for FrontMan and open season for model designation.

Any proofs it is or it is not E14, E20 or E24? :D

I am not sure if this will post, but this is where I got the info.  There were several more photos of the car which while not identical seem to me to be the same car.

Edit:  I don't know how to enlarge the photo, maybe someone can.

Thank you Sir!!

I really need to learn how to do that.
I am now on my iMac where I do not have PhotoShop installed and their photo editing software is just awful.

At least, another mystery is solved.

If it is not too complicated, could you PM me the instructions how to do what you did, or a link to a help page that a non computer person can actually read and understand.

....well, many thanks for the point, and all the background.  That Ford Prefect conversion was new to me, but the easiest way to turn a Prefect into a steamer used to be to show it a picture of a steep hill!
