Early '26 models, No fender braces
Jay,
Great photo. Funny when folks say old photo - Model T assembly line, I'm thinking 1913-14. With the improved style front fenders,no gas tanks and no firewalls they are working with the improved Fords. The lack of a tie bar for the headlights puts the date in the earlier early 1926 production. And you are correct -- an 88 year or so old photo is an old photo.
There is a great book "Ford Factories" by Lorin Sorensen that has additional photos from the Louisville, Kentucky factory. I believe the local library there may have a copy of many of the photos as they were gifted to the library if I remember correctly.
As always thank you and others for posting so many great photos!
