Unique Sherriff's “Stolen 1913 Model T Ford” Notice in 1915 Back When They all Looked the Same

Post by FreighTer Jim » Wed Feb 16, 2022 2:00 pm

The first automobile acquired by
The Dayton Ohio Police Department
was a Model T in August of 1915.

It became the first stolen vehicle
when it was taken by someone
while parked in front of
The Police Station … 🤨

I like the list of identifying earmarks - v-shaped patch on top, dent in the radiator, cork in the radiator petcock, all speak of two years' wear and tear. I hope the Doc got it back !
Get a horse !

Better check your engine numbers! You might have a stolen engine in your T! Is there a statute of limitations on stolen goods? You will have to go to the cemetery and shout loudly to notify the sheriff though.
