1912 Delaunay-Belleville Type SMT automobile
Hi Coop,
I found the car in a big carbook in our local city library so even Czar Nicholas favored that car.
"...Among royal customers was Tsar Nicholas II of Russia who had a number of Delaunays, including the 70hp chain-driven six known as the model SMT [Sa Majesté le Tsar]"
The source of the picture and description is "The Complete Encyclopedia of Motorcars 1885-1968" edited by G. N. Georgano, printed 1968
The car shown by Coop and this one are different - this has a set of small windows above the roofline while Coops car has a flat roof with luggage rack on top.
