I saw the title. I saw your name as the poster. I immediately wondered "Is this another wonderful thread of interesting photos? Or, better yet, the first photos of that beautiful T you are painting being finally assembled?"
Regardless, Thank You!

The third photo, the really beat up boat-tail roadster? It looks a lot like the boat-tail roadster I restored over thirty years ago! Only mine was in much worse condition when I bought it.
The other speedster near the bottom of the stack? Looks like a bellows light leak creating an interest effect. Looks like a steaming radiator! But I don't think it is.

The last photo, an early touring car, appears to be a 1910 with after-market fore-doors, and probably an after-market tail lamp.

The second to the last photo is how I feel when I go around a corner.
Thanks again for posting these fantastic photos.

Tom, I'm not sure how you pull this off. You're photo collection is beyond cool. A national treasure!

No quick getaway! They can't see through the windshield. At least, on my cars my line of sight is usually through the lower portion of the windshield.

K. I don't know what they hit but broke two wheels! Unusual to loose two at the same time. Must have been going very fast and hit something hard.

Maybe they ran afoul of a missing manhole cover.

The speedster 3rd from the bottom with the two girls driving. That's a strange place for steam to escape. Must be the seam in the bottom tank of the radiator.
