1918 Roamer Model C-6-54 Sport Tourer

The Roamer was built in Kalamazoo, Michigan, from 1917–29. An assembled car, its most distinctive styling element was a Rolls-Royce–inspired grille (hence spelling the name RoameR). It is estimated that 11,850 cars were produced, including this car, which is powered by a 54 hp, 303.1 cu. in. inline L-head six-cylinder Continental engine.
