Ultramobile: Voiture Ultramobile, Paris, 1908, a car probably connected with Oldsmobile Curved Dash, with a 4 cyl. 6-12 hp engine.
My next request is 10525, thank you.
P.s. About my previous post, I'm sorry if it seemed I wanted to be polemicous, your quiz is so amazing and interesting that I really didn't mean to contest its rules, just wanted to tell my hope that this quiz will be won by the best quizzer.

The Mason Motor Car Company was organized in New York City during the spring of 1916 with a capital stock of $30,000 for the manufacture of engines and automobiles. Incorporators were N.N. Mason, J. Ward and A.W. Logan. Manufacture of a car is doubted.

Guess #15763 please!

I don't think I can play as frequently as most but I'll have another go with
15900
If you wan to play till the end you can have your time.
I hope you'll be able to post at least once a day to keep it going at a reasonable pace.
Please note that, in case someone reaches 1000 with less than 45 numbers, or a top maker in less than 20, these will be the new limits.

2501:BUCCIALI

Spot on !  I was hoping this one

The Bucciali was a French automobile manufactured from 1922 until 1933. Built by the brothers Bucciali, it began life at Courbevoie as a cyclecar under the name Buc. Initial offerings were powered by 1,340 cc two-cylinder two-stroke engines. In 1925 a 1,600 cc S.C.A.P.-engined model appeared, available in two versions, the "Tourisme" and the "Quatre Speciale" supercharged. A six-cylinder car of 1,500 cc displacement was also offered. 1928 saw the creation of a TAN six-cylinder and an eight-cylinder with front-wheel drive and Sensaud de Lavaud's steering and automatic gearbox, both of which caused a sensation. In the 1930s the company produced the Double Huit, also a front-wheel drive model, which was powered by a pair of Continental straight-eight engines mounted side by side. The last of the prototypes took a Voisin 12-cylinder engine. Very few of the front-wheel-drive Buccialis ever reached the road.

While it is not known exactly how many of the TAV 12 models were produced, only two are known by automotive enthusiasts to still exist: one in the USA and one in France.

8870, maybe ?

It was built in 1961.

Sorry - can't find it. Pass

# 1953 please
Blanc, Fallieres et Besset from Aveyronnais built a single seater in 1961.

8300:KAISER WILLYS

Hmmm...  Off hand, one might guess that this would be the result of the Kaiser and Willys merger. In 1953, Kaiser merged with Willys-Overland to form Willys Motors Incorporated, moving its production operations to the Willys plant at Toledo, Ohio. The company changed its name to Kaiser Jeep Corporation in 1963.

So, none of the manufacturing entities were named Kaiser Willys. However, the merged company's sales division operated under that name for a time, as seen in this ad for the '54 Kaiser, built by Willys Motors, Incorporated.

I put them in chronological order, if they are the same, I usually put the shorter one first (but it's not always like that).
A good suggestion, in this case, would be to use the 1st hint, the time range.

I have them in chronological order too, and offered the third on that basis. My next offering assumes you have three, not four, and is the electric car of that name made in 1959 by the Nic-L-Silver Battery Co of Santa Ana, California - not my period, so I know very little about it.
If wrong, time range hint please.
