I've wondered about this term for years. I have a close friend who is a whiz at digging up information on the internet. Turtle deck is a nautical term applied to automobiles as early as 1911. It doesn't appear that Ford ever adopted that term however.

Time to reline my brake band, and order some other parts. Surprised to see Lang’s no longer list Scandinavian linings, and Snyder’s say they’re no longer made for 26-27, and out of stock anyway for the earlier cars. Just curious if Scandinavians are now obsolete and if they will be reproduced again. My other favourite linings, once made by Mark...

I'm just a 17 year-old kid who repairs antiques, listens to early jass, and wants a T. All of these attributes made me want to repair an old gramophone, pick up some '10s and '20s jass/jazz records, and fall in love with one of the records, Henry's Made a Lady Out of Lizzie.

Thought you might like it:

Are the cross shafts for the shifter/emergency brake the same design for each year of model T, perhaps excluding 09?

I posted a page showing the 10,000,000 Model T. The posting showed the 1924 touring with what appears to be white tyres.
