I recently acquired this postcard.
I think it is a Model S Ford roadster.
I was told it also might have had a roll up windshield.

She also appeared in auto-themed shows.

Now I have a name to put on the card.

Yes, assuming parts have not been swapped around, the first photo you posted is a 1908 Ford Model S Roadster. A few of them straggled behind and were sold in 1909 but 99% of them were in 1908.
Great photo.
Respectfully submitted,

My Pitt Bull/mix would just love to ride in the open T's, but she too can't sit still, and heaven forbid her spotting a cat along the way! So her car is the Model A. She loves the huge back seat and those big rear side windows.
