Thanks Don. Fred offered up Tim's email adress, so I got a response straight from the sources, too.
Robert said his is a 1912 Plague Torpedo (great name!)
Tim confirmed his is Miss Grand Rapids, but same as a Ford. You can't see it too well in the NatsNews photo, but Tim laid the tissue over a textured surface and rubbed in the corregated metal pattern. Pretty neat looking.
