1926 Ford Model TT Truck

Estimate: £13,000 - £15,000*
Reg No: BF 9958 MOT: Exempt
Chassis No: 13033137

Introduced in 1917, the Ford Model TT was rated at 1-ton, for loadcarrying purposes. The newcomer utilised a longer, heavier gauge chassis than its Model T passenger car sibling but the same torquey 2.9-litre four-cylinder engine and epicyclic transmission. Initially available in chassis-only guise, the Model TT could be had with a factory body from 1924 onwards. A formidable workhorse that proved its worth in all corners of the globe, the indomitable Ford has been credited with inspiring America’s love for the Pickup truck.
Manufactured in 1926, chassis no. 13033137 rolled off the production line in January of that year, in left-hand drive configuration. Unfortunately, little is known of the Ford’s history, other than it was discovered in America during 2021, and subsequently imported into the United Kingdom. Rallied locally by the vendor while the process of registration was on-going, the Model TT was said to have drawn quite a crowd. UK registered in October 2022, being provided registration number ‘BF 9958’, the Ford has been subject to a self-evident previous restoration which appears to have been completed to a good standard. Presented with Black coachwork, a nicely finished wooden bed is fitted at the rear, with a green base to the bed. Featuring an enclosed cab with a front bench seat trimmed in Black, the Ford is now ready for using or exhibiting.
