Sorry, Tee. I actually thought you were pulling everybody's lariats there. Seems like a ton of trouble (making those wheels, e.g.) just to create a lawn-rolling machine. LOL

Cool, love that old truck

 

1899 Locomobile steamer.

 

Donated for a scrap drive!

 

T pickup at Wolverine Oil Co. rig.

 

This looks more like wise guys hamming it up, than an accident...

 

Neat shot of the lads and T pickup (3rd today, we've hit the bag limit).

 

Isn't that interesting. A friend of mine has a '14/15 transition car that has many '14 features (headlights, flat rear fenders, bulb horn), but a '15 cowl. I think his cowl lights are normal '15 style. These look like the Saxons on my Overland. Or maybe a Gray & Davis?

I believe the desert girls were with the Fred Harvey restaurants, near Santa Fe. Car appears to be 2nd series Packard 8.
