I have built both in previous years; that's definitely a '22 - '25 style. The '26 - '27 has a deeper cowl area that is wider and shaped differently. Also, the '26 - '27 turtle deck is larger and has body lines that outline the rear fenders. There is probably a 99% chance that that body is a fiberglass replica, evidenced by the fact there are no hinges, hinge slots, or door handle hole in the right side door. (Model-T roadsters up through 1925 only had one door, passenger side only. Driver side did not have a functional door.) Fiberglass T bodies are available from a number of sources. Speedway Motors, Ron Pope Motorsports, California Custom Roadsters, and Spirit Cars are some reliable sources. There are others, too. Do a search for the "tbucketeers" site. It's a bunch of good folks similar to here, but devoted strictly to T roadsters.Jim

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
