I like the spare tire holder with the heavy duty wing nut.

Typical horn button placement for late 1915 - early 1918. The metal capped armrests suggest the car is a black radiator car, or a very late 1916.

Here's a twenty first century "Doughboy" running from the rolling pin. My O My how times have changed! :-)

I'm intrigued with that spare wheel, the bolts are removed from the hub and it appears to be held together with that centre, would this be a spare wheel/tire for both front and rear, just replace the hub with the hub of the broken or flat tire and drive on ???

David.

Royce,
You missed the carriage-head bold just in front of the rear door too--definitely late /16 or early 17.

It seems that this type of spare tire arrangement is one I have seen on English Fords.

That setup was popular in Britain and its colonies.

I had two wheels that were demountable at the hubs and two front hubs to go with them.

The plate were riveted to each wheel, similar to the doughboy photo. Refer to the photos below.

hub 1

Hub 2

Hub 3

hub 4
