This one might be an '09 ? Flat belt off the rear wheel is powering something in that barn. I don't think I've ever seen a horn bulb mount like that one. Looks practical !

I’d say late 9 based on the 2 bolt front body mount, tulip seats front & back, butterfly rear fender brackets are under the skirt not through the fender apron & tapered spokes. I can’t identify the side lights to big for JB 60’s & tiers are different, oil fonts are different. I’m relatively positive that the headlights are JB.

Looks like it may have the ford script with wings on the radiator, Piquette manufactured car?

Running boards look '09 as does the headlamp. Is that some sort of animal curled up in the driver's area? Too blurry to tell for sure.

Looks like a pup in the driver's seat. He moved!

I think the Tourabout was not offered until July 1910 so it wouldn't be called a '09.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
The license plate looks like a 1912 Ohio if I am seeing it right.

Like you said Tim, 09, based on 2 hole front body mounts, no reinforcing plate in radiator, and scalloped cut rear apron. Dog ID a bit tougher.

The Saturday evening post, August 1909, one of the 6 body styles for Fords.

I appreciate the picture, Kerry. According to the model T Ford encyclopedia, the "Tourabout shown in Ford Times but not produced until July, and then called 1910 cars."
"MODEL YEAR DATES: October 1908 to July 31, 1909. (Ford called the cars built after July 31 1910 models."
So, I was wrong about it being July 1910 but rather July 1909.
Sorry.
