I'm interested in any photos of a late 1918 non-electric Model T Coupe dash.
In particular how it is finished off, weather it has a wooden panel under the windscreen or is it left open, is there any trim surrounding the cowl etc.
Also, how the timber edging was finished around the inside of the door, side and rear windows.
Appreciate any assistance here.

Not certain if this will be helpful. The earlier coupes did not have metal trim on doors. The dash would be similar to an electric assist, except the dash would not have an ampere meter.

Thanks for the photo, our dash is a little different to yours, we don’t have a tin panel running across under the windscreen, the ignition key is on the coil box and the light switch is part of the horn button on the steering column.

Here are links to a photo and feature of a 1918 Ford Model T Pillarless Coupe from smclassiccars.com. Perhaps it will help some.

It might be the same as what they did with the Couplet. This is one from modelthaven.

The picture George D shows are of a starter/generator 'electric' model T. The wooden framework picture Is clearly of a common pillared coupe. There was a very short time in late 1918, and early 1919 model year T coupes that the starters and generators were not yet ready for the production line. Those few (thousand?) coupes would be 'non-electric' models, in the later (1919 to 1923) style. Otherwise, all non-pillarless coupes were 'electric' models.

Is yours a pillarless coupe? Or a very early pillared coupe?

It has a fixed pillar between the door and quarter window.
