I noticed this body on craigslist today. He wants $800 for this body, a boxed A frame, and a T frame. It looks like a cut down 1915 body at first glance, but the rear seems to be from a later car. I don't have very good sheet metal for the 15/16 I'm building. In your opinion, are these 15/16 panels on the body, or later ones?

The rear section is from a 21-25 touring body. You can see the fender support rod hole and the hole for the top rest rod. The 21-25 touring rear section is a three part section. The 1915-20 touring is a five part sheet metal section.

Ok, thanks for confirming my hunch!

Daniel -- I looked at that too, since I'm looking for a '15 Runabout body. The top of the cowl is '15, but the rest of it is later, as Leon said. And it's pieces of a Touring Car body, not a Runabout.
