Here I have tried to see what separates these 1917 1918 Coupelet.
The blue shows where they have the same dimensions, the red shows where Differences are.

They made three different Coupelets in 1917!

Larry, I know that there are three major differences, but my does not look like any of those three. Thus, it may be four models in 1917. This "flated top" model came out September 10.
My manufactured 22sep 1917, then early 18 models (perhaps the only) who knows.
My car looks the same back in top of the roof similar to Centerdoor.
I emailed Bruce about it while he was alive, he could not explain, possibly, he agreed with me that Fischer Co.. which also manufactured Centerdoor.
Therefore, I have these pictures above. Will be back with more pictures that show this.
Centerdoor cars have elliptical rear window, my has the typical Coupelet box 1918 Coupe Lets had, but the ceiling is similar to Centerdoor.
