Been looking at some T's, and noticed that some of them have the suicide doors..or doors that open from the front instead of rear. Is this just one of many body styles, or is it a year change? I think I have only noticed it on the 2 door models, but not sure. I have looked at articles on the different changes during production, but I haven't seen any info on the doors. Thanks in advance.

Early coupes i believe.

Tourings from about 1913 to 1925 had suicide doors in the rear and coupes from about 1915 up to introduction of the 1924 models.
