100 years later we apparently still have a problem deciphering what people are saying. is this newspeak or should it be called oldspeak? :lol:

There you go again Tom 🤔 All unique and interesting pics worthy of comment but allow me only one: 7th from the bottom. Speedster - does it have early forged running board brackets repurposed for top socket brackets ? And gas headlamps, electric cowl lamps with a louvered hood 😃.. Thanks Tom

I was wondering about that top support as well. Really though, I couldn't get past the really pretty young girl in the passenger seat.

What part don't you understand?

"All ye' gals that smoke, throw your buts in" Fairly straight forward there, aside from a small spelling error.

#5 - there’s something very intriguing about a photo of a brand-new T ! No doubt a ‘15, but is it Canadian? Front tire looks “fat” for 30x3”. Can’t tell if there’s a driver’s door.

I don't think it's brand new. I'm pretty sure the tires don't match for one thing. I was thinking it was an old restoration, (like in the 40's), or maybe just really well preserved when photographed in the 30's or 40's or 50's or ???

That’s exactly it. An early restoration, maybe forties? Look at the garage doors behind the car, and the shadow from a flash bulb.

And I appreciate the fact that ‘15 touring obviously has the original, never been reproduced, splash aprons.
