Hi John,

This is the same fellow I'm trying to help, but
we're going to need a few more bits of info.

For one, Did he find that 1899 number engraved 
into the hood hinge, or on a metal plate attached
to the toolbox or firewall?  If it's the later, it 
may be a Fergus Motors commission number and
not the serial.

I've also asked if the car a drophead? Flat-rad? 
2-seater or 4-seater?

When he gets back to us on these, we may have 
a little more to go on and can pinpoint the 
model year for him.

Regards,

Joe DeLuca
