Re: Early morning in the shop.
The 6th photo from the top with the kids sitting on the front of the T shows the front spring pretty much flat. I don’t think the total weight of the kids is much more than 300lbs. Probably should have had more leaves in it or it had a broken spring or two. All the photos are neat to see of past times.

Re: Early morning in the shop.
Great photos 
. #1 has wonderful dramatic lighting rarely seen in period photos. #4 gentleman has his tool box open. Probably not the best day of the week for him. The shots of the kids on the hood make me cringe. No wonder many of our headlights are out of alignment. Kids just climbed on them!

Re: Early morning in the shop.
I wonder about the date on that touring title in the 4th picture from the top. I’ve never seen ‘14 cowl lamps on a T with a Cowl ! And I can’t picture the style of those cowl lamp brackets 
But, of course, we have pics of Two adults sitting on hoods 
Thank you for visual entertainment Tom

Re: Early morning in the shop.
That propped up car in picture #1, i see that a lot in these old garage photo's, definitely not OSHA these days but apparently quite normal procedure before lifts were comon 
When in trouble, do not fear, blame the second engineer !

Re: Early morning in the shop.
Referring to Frazier's post above what would they be doing with the car up at that weird angle?
Forget everything you thought you knew.
