This picture,posted onhttp://theoldmotor.com, shows a model T motorhome (motorhouse?) complete with a lawm and porch. It's driven from the back porch
Model-T-Motor-Home-600x444.jpgCharles Miller of Ogden, Oregon, built this most creative motor home with its own lawn. Miller had visited every state in the Union according to this press photo dated Sept. 6, 1929. The caption goes on to tell us that the grass had to be cut frequently. The banner on the rear most panel tells us, Road courtesy costs nothing….Pays lots. The Old Motor photo.
 
This was labeled as a T on oldcarsphotos and I didn't look too closely but now I agree as I see a faint elliptic spring and a brace on the rear axle and the differential is wrong. I mentioned it to oldcars.
 
I don't know if this interior shot is "T" or not, but it is from the "T" era.
