How about a couple of photos of a very rough sport.....Model T Auto Polo....

 

Two super-oldies you just don't hear much of often! 1901 Toledo
steamer and a ca. 1902 Mors, THANKS to the Surrey Vintage Vehicle
Society! Desmond Peacock of the SVVS ID'd these two toughies!!!

 

LGS, THANKS for the ID on the '38 Chevy sedan-delivery! The fenders weren't saying MoPar to me, but being Australian, I couldn't say. Also, I'd have thought a MoPar would have a slightly higher profile.

 

Marshall roller, ca. 1920

 

For the Peerless hounds onboard here! '21 Peerless, bought
at salvage price after the war. According to the Surrey Vintage
Vehicle Society, it was used to haul wood and carnations (no,
not at the same time!) for decades, finally only being scrapped
in the 1950s.

 

Circa '27 Packard 373 speedster in Paris with the back view of the Arc
de Triomphe in the background. Another gem from Britain's S.V.V.S.!

 

'23 Essex

 

1923 Cleveland. Company eventually joined
with Chandler to form Chandler-Cleveland.

 

Okay, quiz time. At left is a pretty scarce 1911 Jackson, thanks
to the Surrey Vintage Vehivle Society. What are the rest of 'em???

 

The middle two are both Model T's. Don't know what the other one is.

 

Do you think that is Lily DaMita?

 

Brush, is my guess.

 

Somebody's going home with muddy shoes!

 

There are different ways to cross rivers...

 

Something like the early car on the left turned up on the AACA 'What Is It ' page sometime in the last year - although I haven't found it yet. I reckon that that is not the radiator core at the front - maybe it is something aircooled?? Particularly as it does not appear to have a radiator cap.

I agree with your thought of Brush in the pic with the Jackson and two Ts.

 

Violette Morris played soccer and raced motorcycles as well as cars. She had a double mastectomy becasue she claimed her breasts got in the way of her riding and driving. What a woman, eh?

 

Rapid, I grew up in Bountiful, Utah since the 1950s...I should recognize the building. Where is it exactly?
Thanks.

 

Some photos from the following link have previously been posted. With the interest in Ford T's, it is worth clicking the link and reading the story, especially about Z-ing the frames etc.
