Description for Ford Model T 1925
This is a 1925 Ford Model TT Grain Truck. The history I was provided on the truck is that it was bought by a family in Iowa and used on the farm. There are a few license plates on the cab that date back to 1930 that I would believe have been on there since then due to the paint looking fresh underneath them. The story I got from the gentleman I bought it from was that a state cop from Iowa purchased the truck in 2008 from the original family and pulled it out of their barn. When he bought it, it was said to have still had some beans in the bed. The guy I bought the truck from bought the truck from that person, and then I purchased it from him.
As you can see the truck is in very good shape for being in original condition. The truck looks to have been originally green, with some of the paint fading off over the last 100 years. Since I have had this truck I have began looking at a lot of other Model TT trucks and have never found any others that retain the originality mine has while also mainting such incredible condition for its age. If you zoom in on the pictures you can still see the pinstriping on the doors of the cab and you can very faintly still see lettering from the original cabin maker, however I am unable to read it.
The truck starts on battery power but you can also crank it to start it if you would like. Runs and drives and stops well. Has the original 4 cylinder engine. Has a Ruckstell 2 speed rear end. All 4 tires hold air. The lights work like they should. Also, if you are coming to pick it up yourself and would like a lesson on how to drive it, I would be more than happy to show you.
If you would like to ask me anymore questions about the truck, please feel free to send me a message, or if you would like to speak on the phone just leave a message with your phone number and a good time to call you back and I will be sure to do so. I do have a clear title in my name that has the matching engine numbers on it. If you are interested in shipping I will assist you in anyway I can, but it is up to the buyer to arrange shipping. Keep in mind that the truck is 7 feet tall and 15 feet 16 inches long and almost 100 years old, so that will need to be taken into consideration for transport.
I hope whoever purchases this truck intends to keep it original and possibly put it on display for others to enjoy. I drive it to a few local shows in the summer and it always commands a ton of attention. A lot of people enjoy looking at it and standing in front of it for pictures. I would be thrilled if the buyer intends to put it in a museum or on display for their business.
Truck has a clear title. I will require a $1000 deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of auction close unless otherwise arranged. Thanks.
