Post by: Wilma on November 18, 2009, 07:04:53 PM
Can anyone tell me what kind of car this is and what year?

That looks like Grandma Duck's little electric car. ;)

The radiator cap (knob) and the shape of the front end give hints to this car being a 1920 or 1921 Model T Ford.

Anybody have a closer idea?

It is not a Detroit Electric produced between 1907 and 1939, which Grandma Duck drove.

This is a 1920 Model T Ford that looks like it might be similar to Wilma's photo and Rudy's pick.

that is a 20's model ford.  It looks like early 20's but i can't be sure unless i get a look at all of the car.

Wood spoke wheels, wood frame for the sheet metal that makes up the body, brass radiator, probably has a 4 maybe a 6 cyl engine.

You guy are getting old. You didn't even notice the beautiful girl standing by the fender of Waldo's photo.
