The 11th picture. Some of us have a hard time removing the rear wheel! Looks like this one came off when driving and it fell and bent the fender! Loose nut behind the wheel!

Hey! I can contribute to this too! and it's even my car too!! 1929 is the year of the pic.

[Scott_Conger]

Darin, that's neat!

And that curved glass window coupe is fabulous, too!! I wonder who on earth built that thing???

[Wayne Sheldon]

Looks like another 35 from Tom R. And Darren W, I had to laugh as I continued scrolling and saw yours coming up! For one second, before I saw your name on your posting? My immediate thought was "Looks like Tom R found Darren's photo somewhere?" I instantly recognized and knew your photo even before it had scrolled halfway into the screen.

That coupe is wonderful!
I "think" it is a 1914 runabout with a custom top built onto it. The car has so many little things, coupled with the fenders, that being sure about the year of it is difficult. I can't tell for certain whether the fenders are after-market or Ford factory 1917 and later fenders. Usually, the crown is different enough on the after-market fenders to tell them apart. But this photo was taken from a low enough angle I can't tell for sure. The rear fender does look like a 1917 Ford fender to me. If the fenders are 1917 or later Ford fenders, then the customization of this coupe would likely have been done in the late 1910s.
I also cannot tell for sure whether the headlamps are Ford issue or after-market versions with brass trim. The firewall and sidelamps appear to be 1914.
The radiator neck is straight, whether the radiator is after-market or just the neck was altered I can't tell. The front bumper and hubcaps round out the car.
The lower body and rear trunk appear to be standard Ford runabout. The door's hinge has been changed, and of course with the enclosed upper body, an outside door handle utilized. The door's window slides down at least halfway, and maybe that is all, given the apparent curve of the body. I can't tell if the driver's side has a door or not. Color appears to be something other than black.
Sure a pretty and early coupe! I like it!
Thanks Tom R.

Number 18 center-door sedan is a 1917 or 1918 (or very early 1919?) with no starter as attested to by the oil sidelamps.
Where was this photo when I was restoring the 1916 center-door sedan thirty years ago? I went nuts trying to find proof of where the the sidelamp brackets were mounted! Even which brackets were used on the sedans wasn't known for certain.
I got it right. But it took dozens of phone calls to "experts", and hours of looking through a magnifying glass at bad photographs!

Number 16 is also a center-door sedan with oil sidelamps!
Thank you again Tom R!

Number 12 runabout is a late 1917 with the horn button on the top of the steering column however unequal windshield hinges.
Other 1917s include number 7 E. M. Cook. The T has a tombstone rear curtain and even fold windshield makin it an earlier 1917. Looks like Mr Cook got a new barn in 1916, and a new Ford for 1917!
Number 25 also appears to be a 1917. It has the three light rear curtain which began about mid 1917 model year, and also the even fold windshield hinges, however with screws instead of rivets holding the lower frame into the cowl brackets! That combination of hinges and brackets was only used for a few months in mid 1917!

So we have an interesting look at 1917. Open cars for early, middle, and late model year variations. And maybe one of the two 1917/'18 center-door sedans?

Looks like Mr. Cook also had an aftermarket radiator possibly a Peerless. Also number one kinda looks like Lucky Lindy. Jim

And that's one wild looking Taxi Cab! Gotta love the horse on the hood! And those fenders...whoooeeee!

I wonder where all those Ambulance looking T's lined up are at.

[Dan Haynes]

Hi, Tim -
Is that what you guys in Ohio call a horse?
Out west we call those camels! Must be one of those regionalisms.

I would like to find another of the Kari-Keen trunks like the one on the taxi:

I have one on my '28 Briggs Fordor, Model A, a very useful trunk to say the least. Not my car in the photo, I don't have a good view of the back of my Model A, showing the trunk. When you do find the trunk 99% of the time all of the mounting brackets and hardware are gone and very hard to find. The one shown in the photo has the bumper extensions and fill panels, but is missing the tail light extension. When you fold out the trunk, you would never see the tail light without the extension.

Here is mine 1927 tudor

[Norman Kling]

Model A 31 Phaeton 4 door which I owned in the 1960's. I had a folding rack on the back on which I strapped a trunk. When this picture was taken, we were leaving from San Diego to San Francisco. We also toured Yosemite on that trip.
