1912 Cadillac 30 Tourer

This car took part in the Lancashire Automobile Club's Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage Car Run in June 1991 starting in the Exchange Station car park in Manchester.
It's the 1912 Cadillac 30 Tourer of Roy Sherman of Billinge, and the only other information shown in the programme of the event is its registration number and that it's a 30hp car. The Cadillac 30 was introduced in 1909 and had a 226.2 cu in (or 3.7 litres) 4-cylinder inline engine. The engine size was increased to 255.4 cu in (4.2 litres) for 1910 and to 286.3 cu in (4.7 litres) for 1911 and 1912. The DVLA record says that the engine capacity is 4½ litres - and that the car hasn't been taxed since 2013.

On 7 April 2019 I showed a photograph of a 1911 Cadillac 30 Limousine that also competed in this 1991 event.
