				I'm assisting a daughter of an elderly Model T guy that is attempting to relocate dad into a 'home'.This 'kit' is in the tail end of his T collection 
and she'd like to see it find a use. The two big C shapes were not in the box with the others, They  may not even belong to the same car.  It was purchased as a kit in Texas some years ago.

				I would question if this is even a wood kit for a Model T. Nothing looks like any wood I have seen in a T.

				I was thinking the same re chair, but some pieces do look car. Maybe a mixed bag, little of this and a little of that.

				Thanks Guys, The chair thoughts likely are closer to reality than T. I thought maybe a T Speedster with the curved pieces being for the firewall or seat back.

				Box this came in, was from Carlin Mfg. & Distribution in Beaumont Texas. started in 1973 , but now, not active. 
Maybe one of our Texas members can shed some light on it. .  . ???

				JF Carlin and Arthur Howell started making sheet metal parts for Model T’s in the 70’s as I remember.   Carlin may have sold T wood parts also but don’t remember if they did.  I had a parts catalog from Carlin and had bought some T sheet metal parts from Carlin and I started getting their parts pamphlets.   I later threw them away a few years ago.    Haven’t thought about them in a long time.
