Greetings from the Model A forum. Saw this silent comedy about a Flivver and figured this is the right place to share it.

“Did you know they’re going to make them out of German helmets from now on?
“They’re not going to have any doors next year .”

Can anyone identify the year of this T?

The film was 1918 so either a 1917 or 1918. I didn't watch the whole thing but would be the car at the beginning.

It couldn't have been older than a 1917. I liked the V sticker on the windshield. That was WWI time frame. The car wasn't very old. The big joke was that a model T could pull a heavier car up that hill at the end.
