And the speedster on the right is a .....?it has fully elliptic rear springs. I wonder how they lowered T steering columns back in the day? We’re lowering wedges available then or homemade?

Great photos! The rear axle and full-elliptical springs in the second car are from a Ford N-R-S. I don't know about the rest of the car.
