Funny!
Seriously though, I sometimes think there are more of your family's fenders and hoods on brass era model Ts than there are brass era fenders and hoods on them!
More great photos! Thank you.

And Thank You and the Rootlieb family for wonderfully made products!

I bet that last one is from a tornado. Notice all the flattened corn stalk stubs facing the same direction.

More like a Derecho, a fancy name for straight line winds. Tornado damage would have them scattered all over the place helter skelter, due to the extremely rapid counter-clockwise motion of its wind. Regardless, awful destruction both of the car and the crops!

John, I think that’s the divorce model, one seat for the wife, the other for the girl friend.
