I had a little time Thanksgiving morning to work on my Model T. It was a sunny morning with the temperature in the mid 30s. I brought the car out of the garage for a few pictures.
The photo is dated "about 1914", I do not know if this is the 1914 model.
That is my grandmother behind the wheel.
My grandfather sold Model-Ts, which Henry Ford made until 1927, in Yakima, WA. I recon this photo to be from around 1920, and I don't know what the bunting is for.
I continue to make progress on my 1926 Model T. In this picture the rear fenders are installed, 1926 licence plate, and headlights. The work on the headlights is not completed. The headlights are from Model T Haven in Kansas and the rear fenders are actually modified trailer fenders. The front fenders are from Bobs Model T in Illinois. The licence is from Bev at the Danes Home antique store in Waupaca.

Browsing the Library of Congress photo site while eating lunch, I found this.
"Drives ancient "Lizzie" to White House to show Henry Ford. Washington, D.C., April 27. His 1921 Model T Ford polished to a mirror like finish, Ernest A. Franke, elderly Washingtonian, drove to the White House executive offices to day with intentions of showing the ancient model to Henry Ford. "Where's Henry" shouted Franke, from the driver's seat, "I want to show him his old car". Police declines to allow Franke to await the arrival of Ford who was due to have lunch with President Roosevelt, 4/27/38"
