Wouldn't this be a late aluminum cover considering it has the reinforcing ribs?

I thought aluminum trans covers were only thru early 1916 or so?? It also has the lettered pedals. $125.00 delivered to Hershey.

That is a 13/14. 15 had ribbed pedals.
You should show the front to see that the front ears are not broken off.

Added FYI. The iron hogsheads began showing up at the factory assembly lines around November of 1915. The assembly line photos of the one millionth engine early December 1915 show both aluminum and iron hogsheads going down the lines.
Smooth and ribbed pedals on US built Ts were pretty consistent with iron and aluminum hogsheads. Canadian Ts continued using ribbed pedals for several more years into the early 1920s on iron and even starter hogsheads.
