Re: The old gang
Third picture. I see at least 3 kids on top of the Depot Hack. I don't think everyone in that picture can fit in it, but I guess some can sit on laps and others stand on running board. Other pictures. There are sure a lot of people who sit on the hood. Engine must not be hot! My family would never let me climb all over their cars. I once got in trouble for standing under the fender on the right side of my uncle's car. I was in a position where he could not have seen me if he had started to drive. The last picture. Has an interesting front spring modification.

Re: The old gang
Runabout 6th from the bottom: Assuming it’s a ‘19-‘22 (demountable spare, top sockets) it seemingly has an unusual rear window. Ford didn’t supply that, did they ?

Re: The old gang
I like the “newer old photo” that’s the last from the top.
It’s a 16 T that could have been cleaned up or restored with the 1942 California license plate on it. The plate may be original and looks like the date is an add on. Is that was what was used on an original plate to show its registered in California? I’ve never seen that before. I bet somebody knows the answer! Always learning somthing new about Model T’S.
The two girls in the T look more from the 40’s - 50’s than the 20’s.
I can’t tell what the sticker is that’s on the windshield’s lower right.

Re: The old gang
Not sure whether it was 1942 or 1943 that California plates changed from a new plate every year with the date pressed into it to using the same plate with a strip first then a tab in the corner to change the date. This was due to WW II to save metal. Later the tab was replaced with a sticker because people used to steal the metal tabs to update their plates without paying the renewal fees.
