Default Rt hand drive T?

I just saw a period photo of a 20s T sedan with right hand drive. It was a photo from the US. I guess I assumed all US Ts had left hand drive. Any ideas?

Turns out the guy reversed the negative. He swore he hadn't, but he had!

RHD sedans may be rare in the US, but there are some around.
I have been trying to buy one for some years. I think it was shiped to the US from Australia. It is in a good dry garage but the owners do not know what they want to do with it. Wish me luck

There were many thousands of Model Ts shipped to NZ from Canada, but a few very early ones were LHD.
The radiator shell had Made in Canada instead of USA ; a scuttle is the cowl, although Ive always called it a cowl.

Thanks, I never heard of that. I have heard of boot and bonnet.
