I'd be interested in knoing what car it is, it looksa more like a 10hp Model 607 to me.</HTML>

<HTML>Peter, you are correct. It is a 1914 Stanley model 607. The windshield riser on the 1914 is painted body color and it is part of the body with no bracing. On the 1913, it is a mahoganey filler strip with bracing. The 20 hp touring would have a 2 piece windshield where the 10 hp touring has a one piece windshield. It has always be a habit of people to tell a person this their antique is older than it really is. This is just another example. And it has a green body? It looks good but the green wasn't offered in 1914. Russian blue and or black bodies were offered. Any other colors?</HTML>
