1925 Model T Truck

For consignment, a true survivor with all factory parts either refreshed or rebuilt over the last 8 years.  This includes a rebuilt engine and new bands for the transmission.  All rust free on the front of the cars steel and fenders, and the remainder of the truck is patina painted wood, with very little rotting.  

Exterior

This all squared off and simple body has been put on to a Model T chassis and retaining the Model T front clip.  Curved fenders, black painted radiator surround with a thermostat winged topper, two headlights and a rounded cowled hood are all presenting in a rustic satin black.  From the firewall back is the all wood cab with swinging entry doors on either side, canvas roof, and a flip open rear window.  The wood is all painted a patina green.  On the back is the solid wood bed with wood sides and angled edge boards to keep cargo at bay and add a boat of extra height.  This is all painted green as well.  A few panels in the bed side are showing some previous rotting.  Kerosene lamps hang from the sides of the cab next to a flip out windshield in a wood frame.  On the back is a simple low tailgate and below in the driver’s side is an electric tail light.  30-inch wood spoked wheels fit nicely into the rounded steel fenders held together by a running board.

Interior

Utilitarian but effective with a simple bench seat refinished in black vinyl complete with an extra cushion for a seat that sits on a wood frame and has a driver’s and passenger’s side seat back.  A simple wood dash with a mere ignition and an amperes gauge on a metal plate and you have it.  The steering wheel is very large and is black metal wrapped in a nicely preserved wood.  For the construction of the interior cab and rear enclosed cab area, wood bead board is in use for the headliner, and this has a few rows of horizontally opposing thick furring strips as structural support.  The floors are lined with ribbed rubber over wood and are in good condition.  A typical model T configuration with a 3 pedal setup to drive the truck is on the floors.

Drivetrain

A 177ci 4 cylinder engine in good condition sits under the cowled hood.  It has a 1-barrel carburetor and a 2-speed manual planetary transmission.  On the back is a 3.64 rear axle.  It is looking like a modern distributor and wiring has been added in.

Undercarriage

With a chassis fully restored this undercarriage shows no rust, and is mechanically sound.  Mostly wood for the floorboards, and some light steel for the simple framing.  Transverse leaf springs provide the suspension, and mechanical drum brakes are on the rear wheels only.  

Drive-Ability

After a slight crank, the engine came to life and off I was to the test track.  The 3 pedal setup always takes a bit of getting used to but once in effect, it’s like riding a bicycle.  The truck drives smoothly and motoring is a pleasure at a pace of yore.  There are new bands in the transmission so it does not have the usual slip of most Model T’s I’ve driven in the past.  

A nice example, believed to be mostly original due to its life spent in storage.  It runs, drives and is a true survivor from this era of much simpler times.  OK I’m done waxing nostalgic!
