1909-1910 hard to see but looks like there is a step in the door at the same level as the rear.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:

I agree as it has the rolled up Windscreen and could even be a 1909? Is the complete photo available?

It appears to be right hand drive. Not a T.

Sorry, just looked again. Left hand drive. Might be a T.

I would agree it's a 1909. The doglegged top irons and the door handle shape are the keys to me. the buggy rial can also be seen.

I think it's more likely to be 1910 because the position of the door handle looks to be a little too high to be 1909, and also, it has a "Rands" windshield. IF it was 1909 wouldn't it be more likely to have a "Metzger Automatic" windshield ?
