Check out the front fender lips in the third picture. The lights are 13-14 black & brass but the car has 12 style front fenders. Very interesting.
Larry Smith.....any comments?

That fourth picture must have been taken in front of my uncle's house. His front porch rotted, and he tore it off planning to replace it, but never got around to fixing it so we had to enter by the back door. I think the photographer was more interested in the young lady posing in the foreground, than he was in either the Model T or the house.

Les -- "Late" 14's had the fender bills like those.

Mike,
The windshield hinge looks like 14. Can not see any detail on the doors.
Those of us that knew Tom Patris were saddened to hear that he has passed away. He was a great guy and lots of fun to be around. I was introduced to you when we were on the 2009 Hillbilly tour in Branson Mo. I called Tom often checking on how he was doing and up-dating him on the goings on in San Diego.
Tom was a long time member of both the HCCA and model T club here in San Diego.

Les -- We all were saddened by Tom's passing. He was a great guy, and as you say, a lot of fun to be with. I shared some good times with him on several tours. He had a dry wit and was always upbeat. Those of us here who knew him miss him a lot, as I'm sure you San Diego folks do.

Sorry for the thread drift while Les and I discuss Tom Patris' passing, but he was a true Model T guy in the best sense, and if you had known him, you would have loved him as we did.
