I could be wrong
I'm just going by what I was told by the dude who I got it from . I really don't care , but I am curious . It came in 8pieces so I can't be sure they were all from the same year or for that matter , even the same make . 
Here are a couple more pics . I know the dash is a T for sure .

Yeah, its a Ford T. Just not sure of what year. I can tell you it is older than 1926. Probably a 23-25......shouldnt be too hard to find what year...Do a Google!!...... Nice start to a cool rod!!
