Actually it looks like a Hudson, about a 1924. Notice the Hudson triangle in the middle of the bumper & the Hudson crest on the spare tire cover.

It is on some kind of dynamometer to check HP under load. Notice the large wheels under the rear wheels & the lever that the fellow closest to the car is holding. It looks connected to a brake on the driven wheels.
 
About 1930. Standing beside the T is my aunt, Jereldine Parker. At the time she was teaching at IXL rural school, south of Arkansas City KS. The road is US 77, two lane concrete. I don't know the mom or any of the kids.

No, the cars in both pictures are 1922 or earlier. The first one is 1919-1922. Windshield straight up, demountable rims. The second picture doesn't show the kind of rims, so it could be 1917-1922. It looks like the trailer may have solid-tire truck wheels.

I've never been very good at id'ing Ts, they're a bit before my time. Thanks for the clarification.
 
I honestly thought that David B. said [what's in the quote] when I asked for photos for my website. Hmmmm.....

The pics I post on this thread are - for most part - considered public domain, easily and readily available from various sites all over the 'net, without providing via e-mail.

Any particular reason for not locating the pics you want from this and endless other sources by doing a search on google, yahoo, etc.? Just wondering. . .
