This car seems to be located in a museum.  Does anyone know which museum, and where it is located?  I have never seen an Empire Model 20 equipped with a windshield and folding top, and would love to see this one if the museum is located in the USA.  Perhaps these are aftermarket additions?

I found a picture of this very car as a 1911 Empire 20 Gentleman's Racy Roadster from the Long Island Automobile Museum. If it is still there, I don't know.

According to several web sites, the Long Island Automobile Museum closed in 1980 and the collection was sold off, although the abandoned buildings still remain (at least in 2012).  I guess I can cross that one off my list, and I was going to be up that way this summer.
