Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please identify this car and the year.

That should be a GWK (Grice, Wood & Keiller) friction-drive cyclecar of around 1914.

Yes! This one is from 1915, to be precise. An early mid-engined car!

Although it's wearing a Galway registration number in that photo, I think it is (or was) in the USA.
