1915 Tudor Sedan
I was going thru my father collection of old Model T literature and photos and found this photo I would like to share.

Doesn't look like any Tudor sedan I've seen!

Re: 1915 Tudor Sedan
I believe the automobile is a Centerdoor.

Re: 1915 Tudor Sedan
It is a common photograph of one of at least two different prototype center-door sedans built in 1914. It has been published in dozens of books and magazines over the past 3/4 century, usually NOT telling that it was NOT a production model. Several photos of the prototypes were taken in 1914, and show up from time to time. It is known that at least two were built because at least two photographs have been seen showing two cars. It is not known if more than two were built or not, because apparently the experimental department changed numerous features including headlamps and fenders. So there are various different looking cars that may or may not be more than one car. They may simply have been taken different days with different headlamps or fenders on them.
The bodies on theses cars is quite different than the bodies on the production 1915 center-door sedans, which in turn are very different than all the T center-door sedans that followed for 1916 and later.

That is a Model T sedan and it does have two doors.
