On the picking of nits regarding Model T evolution:


The last year for brass radiators was 1915. 1916 and after were pressed steel and painted black through the end of production.


On Models 1915 and earlier, all rear fenders went straight (horizontal) back once reaching the apex over the center line of the rear axle. 


1916 and after to end of production the rear fenders followed a radius that followed the rear wheel with a clearance that allowed for added weight in the vehicle and not drag on the tires. 


None of this affects your production. These are concerns for the model builder who wants to accurately represent the year of their modeling efforts.  I end my modeling at 1913 and thus need all fenders to be going straight back. I have two Jordan's that need this fender modification.   


I have held with all brass radiator as this is easy to accomplish.


So far my operators have not yet called me on the fenders. Thankfully


Hope this helps and that we are still friends. 


See ya
