    So the other night I was talking with a buddy over a few adult beverages when he asked about the frame for my model a, what it was, etc. Then he proceeds to tell me how his mom has some frame off in the bushes that has been there as long as he can remember, tells me at one point it had wood spoke wheels and that if I wanted it he could probably swindle it out of his mom. So... 1 week and $20 later she is loaded on the trailer sitting in my yard! For the price I couldn't just leave it to rot even more in the bushes. Only problem is I have no idea exactly what it is. If anyone could help with identifying it I would be very appreciative and very impressed as well! Here's a couple of pics.

    EARLY, from the late teens to early 1920's, no front brakes, Elliot style front axle. Check to see if the steering box is on the left or right side. Any hub caps with logos?

    Well, definitely no hubcaps with logos and the steering box is on the p***enger side, which is kind of strange... That's really about all the more I got for ya. It's upside down because it slides onto the trailer a lot easier that way when it's only my 130 lb body and a buddy loading it!
