No other cars in sight. Maybe that was Warren Mortenson?

I know that car and rode in it a few times over the years. It belonged to Paul Dudek of Edina, MN.

It's a 1914 Ford touring with Minnesota Pioneer plate 653 that was originally registered to Bob Nelson of Minneapolis.

Bob sold the car to Paul Dudek in 1966 or 1967. Therefore, in 1971 when the photo was taken, Paul was the owner.

After Paul went over it mechanically, it was of the smoothest running and quietest Model Ts around.

Paul and his wife were very active in the AACA and he served on the national board for nine years . He passed away in July 2018 at age 83. His wife sold the '14 to another local collector.
