Do you still offer the "high back" 1915 Model T body? If so, does it have the stock-size firewall?

First, some history

1915 T-Bucket Body: The One We Know Today and How it Came About

It goes without saying I love T-Buckets, but I'm especially fond of what's known as the 1915 T-Bucket body. For good reasons, which we'll try to cover

As laid out and shown in the dimensions, the cowl is smaller and the sides cut down. The back looks higher, but is 1 inch from regular height. The rest is 'shrunk'. That bit of a flip at the top back too.

Another that has the smaller 1915 cowl, but not sectioned. This may be why the glass one is called a high back, since even though it's the rest that's changed, it's the back that sticks out.

No, the photo below wasn't taken in 1956, although with the Chevy Delray and the cool 1915 T roadster it sure looks like it could have been. Actually,

The CCR website still shows them as Special Order.

Of course, they have always been great over the phone, but publicly confirming availability would be nice.

Spanky,
A few years ago I had the chance to stop at CCR for a visit. Jerry was kind enough to let me take a picture of the his 1915 firewall pattern up against their 1923 body. As you can see there is a lot of difference between 1915 and the 1923 firewall size.
