I believe that toward the end of 1903, Walter Christie built this, his second car. As you can see, this car bears little resemblence to the 1903 patent car. However, the front wheel drive transmission system was identical. Christie would stick with this overall layout for the next 5 years.
The radiator is in the center of the car. It is a tube and fin type of radiator, but the air passes over it rather than through it.
This car may have been put on display at the 1904 New York Auto Show while Christie headed for Ormond Beach in his 1903 car.
