While sorting old family photos, my wife found this one from 1935. I believe the new car is a 1934 Hudson Terraplane. What a difference twenty years makes!

When I was in elementary school the crossing guard had a Terraplane. She called it her "Terrible Plane" The car was about 8 years old then!

One thing I liked about this photo was the model t was more likely to have survived, being the one that was tucked away in some old barn, while the new terraplane was pulling everyday chores, well past WW2. I don't know what year the T is, but looks in good shape for it's age.

Looks like a 1911 Torpedo.

You could probably get much better resolution with a scan.
