That is what the caption said, what is it really?

I don't think it's a Model T. The steering wheel looks wrong and the hood it too long.

Maybe a 1917 - 18 Chevrolet? Compare here:

People will loosely use the term 'Model T' to describe most any old car with a canvas top on it.
Most likely because most of them were.

To the old car enthusiast's we know the differences to an extent.
The average person usually don't. That's probably the reason the picture was labeled a Model T.

too many wheel lugs for chevrolet that I'm familiar with. the chevy demountable rims I've seen had only four lugs same as ford except the valve stem hole is in a different location.
Maybe a dodge?

I believe the wheels are "Firestone" accessory 5 lug wheels. Chevrolets of this era had non - demountable wheels.

Dodge in the teens had a straight windshield post and was a much larger car.

Chevrolet 490, about a 1918 model. "Four days on the road, 90 days in the shop"!
