I received following message. I can't find an answer. May be you can? If yes, please write to Earl Jeffers and to me (ab@iki.rssi.ru). Thanks!

"Hello Andrei,
I live in St. Kitts (or St. Christopher) in the Eastern Caribbean. I have some remains of a Durant antique car but I am not sure which of the 1923 to 1933 models it is. Can you help me?
I have some information:
Model F
Motor Number 251003
mark on engine W5A-600
Manufactured by Continental Motors Corporation
Detriot & Muskegon, Michigan, USA
Car number T-407605
Model M
Manufactured by Durant Motors Canada Limited
Seaside Ontario, Canada".

Thanks for help to Terry Kulchycki for the following explanations:
It is most likely a 1927 Star model M. The car was built at the Leaside plant just outside of Toronto. Most Stars that were sold outside of the US and Canada were built at this plant. As well, the Star was sold in some markets, Australia for example, as the Rugby.

Thanks to Albert Kopans for powerful assistance.

You are welcome to write me by E-mail Contact. Andrei Bogomolov.
