1926 Model T transition times.
Here is another pic from 1926 in Borger, Tx. The oldest T that I can see is maybe a 23. Undoubtably there were earlier T’s around but maybe not so much on this particular day. Times were changing I guess. The date appears to be mid 26.

At least 1930. Some of those cars look like Model A's

Re: 1926 Model T transition times.
Makes me sad to think some of those cars could be crushed and sold to the Japanese in the late 1930s..

Re: 1926 Model T transition times.
The picture is dated 1926. (lower left) The A Model-looking cars may be Dodges or other popular cars that were about 5 years ahead of Ford on styling. Borger hardly existed prior to early 1926. An oil boom and "Ace" Borger, et al, changed that very quickly, and I would imagine new cars were selling briskly as thousands of people streamed into the area. Many probably lived in their cars.
