MOST ’20s Model Ts have stamped steel dashboards painted body color (black-only had been abandoned by ’26), the wooden one seen here must’ve been localization for the UK market.
Speaking of which, the T’s greatest innovation in the realm of driving controls is absent here- it was the first car with left-hand drive.
