Description
I finally bought the 1925 Ford model TT I found last year!This is as I was about to load it on my car trailer to bring my prize home!
I am the third owner of this exceptionally solid and complete 1925 Ford Model TT truck, it is only missing the glass because of a stupid kid about 20 years ago, and it has very little rust, a some minor damage (like a twisted fender) and might even run as is!
It's not really visable here, but this entire truck is muraled, inside and out with things like Lil' Abner and other characetrs from that generation!
Plans for this truck call for a full restoration, and the addition of a paddy-wagon style rear body section!

There is an original ford f-100, the first year it came out. It is missing an engine, and there is a lot of rust. It is in the Okolona-Louisville area. I think it still for sale.

So much a labour of love!
The whole truck was muraled back in the 50's with all sorts of "Dog Patch" characters for a parade it was in, that was the last time it was driven, I suspect because they cracked the head but I'm not sure, and the original owners could not remember for sure... bbut I have a new head and tons of cool parts and accessories for it!

Good find! It's nice to see an old car like this saved from further rust and or a scrap metal pile.
Every time I see cars like that sitting around I always ask my parents if I can buy it. And of course they come back with the same response, "ARE YOU CRAZY! No, when you get your own house."
How much did you get it for?

I over-paid for it, but there are no Model TT ford trucks like this arround out here anymore, and to get one even half as good as this one from somewhere else would have ended up costing me a lot more just for the fuel (I research things to the extreme) so I gave the pair of brothers that owned it (they had owned it for nearly 70 years) $900 Canadian, and it was 30 minuted from home so it was nothing for the gas, it was easy to load, and it came with all the hard to find parts, a local museum helped me out with getting some parts and accessories for it too, so it's really workig out to be very cheap for what it is... I should have it running shortly after the snow is gone!
I can't wait for the restoration to be complete and I can drive it! It'll be really slow, but just so much fun!

Do you have an interest in Cars?

Not really indepth. I just like how some of them look. I'm mostly interested in learning to draw them for world-building purposes.

They find me, I was driving down a random back road out west of Wetaskewin several years ago when I spotted this one about 1/2 K out in a field, I pointed it out to dad, and he said it was just a little building that I was looking at, I never really thought about it for years till a while ago we ended up on the same road accidentally, and I pointed it out again, this time he believed me and insisted we get a closer look!
