By Bruce Balough on Thursday, January 10, 2013 - 11:17 am:I found this in a booklet named " A Pictorial History of the Ford" dated 1957, and thought all of you might like it.
By Rob Heyen - Nebraska on Thursday, January 10, 2013 - 11:32 am:Bruce,
I've not seen the touring before. The roadster is taken on the "Ocean to Ocean" race in1909. It was the pace car from NY to St Louis.
Thanks for posting,
Rob

To add to your quest....perhaps you could find these booklets, printed by Ford for the K. Never have see these or reprints, but maybe you have. 
July 1906

By Darel J. Leipold on Thursday, January 10, 2013 - 03:28 pm:Here is my original photograph of Childe H. Wills and his 640 K roadster. Wills is credited with designing the Model K.
By Ted Dumas on Thursday, January 10, 2013 - 03:38 pm:Looking at the Model K brochure, it seems that the Model K engine is a forerunner of the modern short stroke engines. The bore as I read it is 4 1/2 inches and the stroke 4 1/8 inches, as in modern engines the stroke is slightly smaller than the bore.
By Bruce Balough on Thursday, January 10, 2013 - 03:41 pm:C.H. also designed the FORD script that they still use today. Here is page 7 from the booklet
