For one point, specify the year and make of this car.  Also specify the names of the driver and riding mechanic.

It's a Frayer-Miller taking part in the American Elimination Trial for the 1906 Vanderbilt Cup. The driver is Lee Frayer, and the mechanic is a 16 yr-old by the name of Eddie Rickenbacker - the late,great Eddie Rickenbacker of motor racing and fighter pilot fame.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
