Help identifying old bike
Judging from my grandmothers current age, I'm guessing this picture was probably taken in the mid to late forties, maybe early fifties, in greenville south carolina. For the sake of discussion, The man on the left would be my great grandfather, the young lady on the left would be my grandmother, the young lady on the right I'm thinking would be my great aunt laurie. I believe, if I'm not mistaken, the man on the porch to be my great great granddad marslender. He owned a general store in greenville, and I suspect this trike was used for deliveries.
At any rate, any help identifying the bike would be greatly appreciated. I dug through a lot of old pictures and this is the only one of it I could find...

Looks like a Servi Car (year unknown). Looks like everybody is enjoying some cold watermelon on a hot summer afternoon. Great grand dad looks like he is working on a part off the trike and I'd wager the gentleman with the hat is probably the rider. I too enjoy these old pictures. Here's a 1947 servi car picture showing right hand shift.

Great old photo. Too bad it's not such a good photo of the bike.
I lean toward Indian. Here's a couple photos of Indian trikes. Note the similar rails on the ultility box.
