I see there's a rare "1916-A Touring".
Is anyone familiar enough with the cars to know if the "1909" has any actual 1909 parts?
The engine shot shows a high head, and the lamps all look like 1911 - 12. Coil box is 1913. Only the top bows and perhaps the main section of the body appear correct, but there are no pictures that show the rear axle or front axle.
Too far away. No extra cash. Always fun to see the pictures and get an idea of what is out there.
Thanks Gary.

The "'09" appears as replica. The body rear seat box is squared off, should be curved shape. The body sills should be wider, where the floorboards fit, this replica body has tiny narrow sills. Body trim cane molding is too thick too, this isn't an original body.
Motor is later, serial pad is large like '17-'25 engines, the pedals are smooth, rear axle is '20's or so. Wheels aren't rounded felloe, fronts should be 3" tires.
My guess is it sits on a later frame, just can't see the front axle, but appears to have under axle wishbone.
