Not that.

Is it your answer to my last message ? If so, I'll try the Sammio Ribble Pilot Spyder (1966), a replica of the Lancia D24 Le Mans based on a Triumph Herald 1200.
Oh my...I quote the guesses in my replies 98% of times and the one I don't, I miss a reply!
Sorry about that and yes, it was for your last guess.
And it's not the Sammio Ribble Pilot Spyder.

As I doubt that it is the Ribble Motor Services -a buses company-, I'll leave it and try #12935.  Thanks.

Jackson & Kennings from Southport, Lancashire, built a couple of tricycles and 2 bigger four in 1904-1906.

12935:ROLLS ROYCE OF AMERICA

It was not long after Rolls-Royce started as a commercial venture that its leaders looked toward the United States – first as a fertile market for the sale of their motorcars and then soon afterwards as a place to manufacture the motorcars. World War I temporarily interrupted those plans but soon thereafter Claude Johnson returned to America. The reasons were straightforward: 1) America was the most important car market in the world buying more cars than the rest of the world combined, 2) US duty taxes on imported cars was indeed high resulting in high prices and fewer sales, 3) the British plant had a huge backlog trying to keep pace with pent up demand following the war 4) the long delays in shipping cars across the Atlantic. Springfield was chosen as a site for similarly logistical reasons – potential cost savings and quick access to the best US markets. In 1919, the company incorporated as Rolls-Royce of America and acquired its first US manufacturing plant in Springfield, Massachusetts. Production began the following year. By 1923, Rolls-Royce presence in the U.S. was substantial. Rolls-Royce of America Inc. manufactured nearly 3000 Silver Ghosts and Phantoms before succumbing to the Great Depression. To this day, Springfield is the only place outside England that Rolls-Royce cars have ever been built.

Heading for #13000, please.  Thanks

The April 19, 1906 issue of The Automobile provided the address of Audineau/Rothschild's Manhattan factory:

"F. Rothschild, the Parisian builder of automobile bodies, has established an American factory at 530 West Twenty-seventh street, New York City, where he has forty men at work under a French superintendent. The business is in process of incorporation by M. J. Rothschild, son of the house, under the home title of Rothschild et Cie. J. R. Chisholm, who at one time imported the Decauville car, is interested in the business management."

The April 20, 1906 issue of the New York Times listed the firm under its New York Incorporation listings for April 19, 1906:

"Rothschild & Co., New York, (automobiles); capital, $30,000. Directors - W. H. Mendel, M. J. Rothschild. N. D. Reich, New York."

This one ?

Shelby American was founded by Carroll Shelby in 1962 to build and market high performance parts and modified cars for individuals. The company was based at Santa Fe Springs, California (1962), Venice, California (1962–1967), Ionia, Michigan (1967–1968), Whittier, California (1986–1998) and Las Vegas, Nevada (since 1998).[5] Some of the automobiles produced by Shelby American were the Ford Mustang-based Shelby GT350 and Shelby GT500. Shelby American also installed the engines of US-market examples of the legendary AC Cobra which was an AC Ace with a Ford V8.

The company was also highly involved with racing, with Shelby cars winning many races and the first title for an American constructor at the World Sportscar Championship in 1965.[2] From 1965 to 1967, Shelby American also provided support to Ford for their successful campaign to win the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans as historically the first American constructor ever with the mid-engined Ford GT40's. With Shelby Daytona, Shelby became one of only three American constructors (along with Ford and Chevrolet) to win a title on the international scene at the FIA World Championships.

If it is, then #13701, please.  Thanks.
