I don't know the year, but this is a Model T Doctor's Coup. The Colorado license plate features the year 1926, and it would be a fair guess that 1926 was the year of manufacture for this example.
Odd to think of. In an era when families were larger than today's, this was a really small car.
The Doctor's Coup was called that as it was thought they were suitable replacement's for the Doctor's Buggy, a type of horse drawn buggy that was called that as physician's favored them for house calls. they were not particular large either, so perhaps the marketing made sense.
The Model T operated in a somewhat different fashion from a modern automobile so you actually have to be taught to drive them specifically. The reverse, for example, is not identical to a modern standard transmission.
