Re: Before coupes
Hummm...Until Henry invented the "Doctor's Coupe," there were no doctors. Only quacks with huckster.

Re: Before coupes
I vaguely recall a story of a Doctor who used his Runabout's acetylene headlight to illuminate emergency surgery during one particular house call. It seemed he had an extra length of hose for that purpose.
When did I do that?

Re: Before coupes
My father bought a new Model T For Coupe in 1923. He did not get his Dr's degree (PHD) until 1942. The Ford Company allowd him to drive the coupe (Dr's Coupe) under a special license. I bought a 1923 Model T Coupe (Great restoration) in 1953. I have the couse work for a Dr's degree (PHD), but did not finish the work. The Ford Company did not get after me for driving a Dr's coupe without the correct college degree.
