1903, but what else ? (UPDATE: 1903 Mors)

We received already several aguesses about this racer, Paul Linster (the Veteran Car Club Grand Ducal, Luxembourg) hit bullseye we think with: 1903 Mors (Allen Brown Images). Paul adds:" I am quite sure this car is a MORS 4 cylinders 90 hp 920 kg like the one driven by Henri Fournier at Paris-Madrid in 1903.Gabriel drove in this race a similar car wearing number 168 and declared winner of this disastrous race which has been stopped because of 3 dead ...among which Marcel Renault. Gabriel was the first of the "étape Paris-Bordeaux" at an average speed of 105 km/h. (Paris - Bordeaux in 5 hours 13 minutes)" (photo collection Larz Anderson Auto Museum)

Hi! I have studied the Mors, and Panhard racers for a long time, and this photograph is definitely a 90 h.p. Mors racer, from seeing in my books. Also, can anyone supply with a source that would have detailed photographs of any 1901-03 Mors engine & chassis or components, also, looking for the same of a 1899-03 Panhard. Thanks! -- Don
