1915 Sea to Sea trip began in Coney Island New York, and was to go to San Francisco California, these 4 factory backed cars were to see which made a better car by merely surviving the road conditions. The closest is a Packard, the other black car is a Studebaker. The white cars aren't lableled or indicated, and I couldn't find anything on the internet about this competition. The destination was the 1915 PanPacific Exposition in San Fran
