Quite MODERN when you consider the power line running by!

What a great photo. I now have it as my screen saver picture.

ET and R2D2 in the barn door?

Could be telegraph lines or electric lines either one at that time.

Imagine the increased road speed with those outsized back wheels, Dallas. A none too secret weapon in drag racing with the Amish?

This photo is not as old as we might think. The 3-phase power
is pretty modern.

Great photo, but I am not sure it is a TT. The fenders, hood louvers and wheels don’t look quite right. Maybe Chevrolet?

Rush to judgment. So hard to see detail, sorry guys. Hood louvres in an embossed panel, maybe International ? Burger helps to fix a later date from the power line, which I agree with. The photo has the look of '50s neglect of that barnyard. Many '20s farm trucks were still in use then.

That's not a Model T.
