The very last picture of the 1911 touring car, has a torpedo horn on it!

Re: Friday Follies
Wonderful pics, thanks! I wonder of the life expectancy in the radiator department?

Picture # 2 is the Sager Hotel, which stood on the corner of Walker Street (U.S. 180) and Breckenridge Avenue in Breckenridge, Texas. View is looking north. Breckenridge Avenue is also Texas Highway 6. The Ford House was across the street and 2 blocks east.

Re: Friday Follies
I wonder if the Ford radiator shop was any different? A bigger, more productive shop may have been better organised. Certainly fumes would be a real problem without protective equipment.

Re: Friday Follies
I suggest anyone with a '13 roadster take a look at the photos in this post. There are two that show the correct configuration of the top where it meets the rear bow. When I made the top for mine, that's exactly how I did it.
