What is it? # 82 (UPDATE: Rochet-Schneider !)

WE thought this one to be easier. One never know what you guys know and not. Both 'junior'competitors and jurymembers had a hard time to come up with the right make. The answer was "of course" Rochet-Schneider. The year is a bit more difficult, but as we understand from Paul Linster it must be before 1926, when a radiator change came. Two jury members had the make right. Mike Tebbett is the only jurymember with the year right: 1925. No other competitors came up with the right make before the deadline. Maybe next week again a winner.
