Looking for photos/1914

Post by Angmar » Sun Jul 24, 2022 9:39 pm

Where can I find some black and white factory photos showing the 1914 t chassis as new without body (to be fitted with wooden aftermarket body outside of the factory)? Just off of the assembly line photos showing details of the chassis minus the body.

thanks in advance.

You can try to search the internet with this link https://www.google.com/search?q=1914+ch ... z2uIr8clqM
but you apt to find pictures like this, cars head to tail on an assembly line with workers huddled over it regardless of the stage of assembly

Craig Beek has one of these in his museum - trying to find photo. If its what your looking for I can take photos of it (or you can buy it from him)

Thanks guys. Great info. What had hoped to find is photos of the 14 completed at the plant minus the body. This kind of car would have been sold like that and the buyer could attach his own body or have one made by an aftermarket jobber.

I am also trying to find original photos of bodies that were made for t's in and around 14 as well as info on those suppliers.

Hopefully that makes sense.

Good aftermarket body pictures and descriptions at Martin-Parry.com, although they didnt supply bodies until 1919.

Canadian right hand driven cars and chassis.

How about a new early 1915 chassis?

Maybe a right hand driven chassis from 1913 or 1914? (Canadian build.)

And this is a 1912 to 1913 chassis how they were often delivered to the body supplier!
