Slightly sinister;...but undoubtedly handsome. A Colby of 1913, perhaps?

No, but a Colby is almost as beautiful.

I have been unable to find another model name, in the Standard Catalog of American Cars the only model for 1917 and 1918(last year of car production) is Sixteen-Valve 4. I've also attached an advertisement.

Apart from my source, I can't find a White GMTR anywhere. Therefore I think it is a "16-valve 4" and there is a point for ropat53.
