    Hey all,
    I picked this up today after being told it was probably a Mdl A, but, I've never seen one without the gas tank on top. It has the shape and size of a 1918 Dodge Brothers Touring car body I once had. BUT, it's also close to a 24 Buick Roadster I had a couple years back.
    It's in pretty nice shape and I would hate to just let it sit in my shop if it is something rare...

    Dimensions are as follows. On the frame side, 45 1/2" on top, 37" on bottom. The engine side is 23" across. I didn't think to measure the height and it's at my office shop.

    Could it be a cowl for a 1 ton T truck?

    All of the old T trucks I'm seeing pin pictures has a seem where it could have a gas tank on top instead of the vent top.. It isn't close to my friend's model T car, so I'm at a loss.

    Wow, I thought I had replied on Tuesday and it didn't post. Very strange.
    Arthur, I saw the picture of the green TT truck and thought that was some kind of seam on the top edge of the cowl. Now that I look at it closer I can see the vent and the trim. Thank you so much for looking into this stuff for me, I very much appreciate it.
    I will be contacting the restoration web page this week.
    In the mean time, the lower part of my 28 cowl arrived today and I'm super happy. I'm getting very close to having a complete 28 Tudor body, frame and suspension (but using juice brakes).

    You can doubleclick on those search engine photos and make the photo twice as large so you can see the details better. Not just that one,all of them.
