So What Is This?
I received these 2 cast iron roadsters or coupes within the last 2 weeks. The larger one was described on E-Bay as an A.C. Williams Roadster, while the smaller one was not identified.
Small Roadster
Dimensions: Dimensions:
4 1/4" (L) x 1 3/4" (W) x 2" (H) 6" (L) x 2 1/4" (W) x 2 5/8" (H)
108mm x 46mm x 51mm 153mm x 58mm x 67mm
Weight: Weight:
8.3 ounces or 236 grams 1.07 pounds or 474 grams
Large Roadster
Dimensions:
6" (L) x 2 1/4" (W) x 2 5/8" (H)
153mm x 58mm x 67mm
Weight:
1.07 pounds or 474 grams
Both do not have what are called "markings". The term markings refers to any numbers, Patent Pending, Letters or the name of the manufacturer.

Large Roadster
The small roadster had its hood ornament broken off,
so there's no way of using this feature as a comparison.
Large Roadster
The large roadster has a pair of wings as its hood ornament
I'll have to check my reference books to see if I can discover is these 2 item were in fact made by A.C. Williams. If anyone knows, by all means, please send me an e-maikl so I can authenticate the smaller roadster.
Thanks for visitng, and have a great day, wherever you may be.
