Re: Prime
Number 9 looks like an early T but the steering is on opposite side and has different front springs. What is it?

It's a Model S, with accessory elliptic springs. Also, some odd brace across the front of the radiator, probably to give extra support to the front frame cross member, which is notoriously weak and probably unfit for the added load that the accessory spring arrangement places upon it.Norman Kling wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 1:29 pmNumber 9 looks like an early T but the steering is on opposite side and has different front springs.
