Hey there Rich B! Great photos. Car looks like a 1913 runabout. Neat, and thank you for sharing this.

I have one of those fancy tire tools - still haven't figured out how it works !

Also note the nice electric headlamp conversion within the acetylene headlamps.

Which tool? It appears that there are different pieces.
