There should be a picture with something not quite correct in it

I was going to say it's a right hand drive with the negative reversed, but the FORD script on the radiator would then be backwards, and it's not. Photoshop, maybe?
 
Since the engine couldn't be in there backwards I'm guessing RHD engine (I'm not even sure they were like that. Reversed I mean.) or some industrial version of the T eng. used in a car?
 
The windshield assembly is not normal T, The firewall has holes on both sides for the steering column, the cowl body line is not correct - maybe the cowl is home made? Or maybe the body is Austrailian? The rad shell is odd & looks to be intentionally bent out at the bottom. The left door indicates an export car - all Canadian Ts & most export units had 2 front doors (if they had doors at all). The wiring is all reversed to match the engine. The photo is not flipped - a good photo shop operator could add the Ford script on the rad but it would be hard to insert the "30 X 3 1/2 CORD" on the tire. The right hand drive engine has a different hogs head & the mag & gas linkage is different but otherwise the same as the LHD models.
 
Look at the head and exhaust manifold, they are reversed! This looks to be a recent photo, how about more photos?

I'm not so sure on the tire wording, flipped it appears that it might read WARDS

Mustang,

I think you are correct. In your close up picture you can make out WARDS & almost RIVERSIDE. You also show that the Ford script can be easily manipulated.
 
I agree, a RHD reversed to look 'normal'. Perhaps from New Zealand, looking at sticker & 'vin' tab on firewall.
 
i think this was done on the computer, i copyied it and pasted it on microsost office and i could reverse it all the other way, even the ford script. like holding a mirror next to the rhd picture.

I think that someone, just reversed the radiator Ford script, on the radiator of an Australian "T", took the photo, then reversed the photo, for this "impossible" "T".
Pretty clever !

What about the video? it shows a spanner being used without the thread being reversed and the steering wheel on the same side as in the photo
 
First, the Ward Riverside in the first photo is reversed. Next, the front spindles have left and right hand threads. The video does not show any connection between the photo and the video.

CAUTION:

My virus detection system flagged this video as having some kind of problem as well!!
 
Ok maybe i will shift it to youtube it should not have a problem like that.
(So the real problems are things like the rad'shell being low with a higher cowl, no vents on other side of hood, no ford script on rad'shell and things like that)
