This was one of the participants in the Lancashire Automobile Club's Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage Car Run in June 1991 and is pictured in the Exchange Station car park in Manchester before the start of the run.
It's a 1911 Cadillac 30 Limousine, a car that was based on the 1907 Model G, and was produced from 1909 to 1911. The 1911 model had a 286.3 cu (4,692cc) engine. The programme of the event had this note about the vehicle:
1911 Cadillac 30 Limousine
Reg: DS 8678 4 cylinder 30hp
(C.R.Unsworth, Ashton-in-Makerfield)
Imported from a San Francisco museum last August, this "Open Drive" Cadillac has four separately cast cylinders, each with its own copper water jacket. It sports Fisher Coachwork, and is driven today by William Ellam.
