Mueller Auto Repair of Louisville, Kentucky, built the double ended/two way/ain't going nowhere (no diffs, or is that one hiding on the left?) Model T Ford Roadster around 1930. :dry:

Interestingly (?) I looked up Franck & Payne Streets, Louisville, on Google Maps and just about all the houses in the vicinity are timber clad, not block built establishments as shown in the picture. However, after working my way around the place I discovered the houses have garages built in laneways behind the houses - none of which looked like the one in the picture, however I did find a lower, double garage, at the end of Payne Street that looks like it may have been built using the same type of blocks. Other than that there is a Mueller's Auto Repair 700+ kilometres away in the Detroit area; beyond that I'm stumped! :oops:

Or was I meant to be identifying the truck??? :blink: :whistle:

You would have been happy driving for Jacksons,they had a big fleet of nicely painted old trucks.Inside ,wooden bench seats ,you supplied your own bag of rags to sit on.The chief penny pincher was Bill Kennedy,he went on to be a bigtime financier and adviser to the Qld govt.

This double-ended Model T Ford Roadster was the work of Mueller Auto Repair in Louisville, Kentucky. Because two drivers are better than one, right?

Swishy,
Could that horseless carriage be Australia's first car,
built in the 1890's in South Australia.
