What are you getting your special loved one for Christmas - that no one else has? Here is the answer -

Wonderful 1919 Ford Model TT with a 1926 engine and transmission. Truck runs and has a two stage ruxtal rear end. This truck is clean and neat.

What about using this great truck for:

Photography business - old time or modern
Parades
Restaurant business
Resorts or hayrides
Farm or ranch vehicle
Other unique and fun uses

I have converted the box for use as a photography studio so it has three separate sections for the box. The box is made of 1/2 inch white oak, but I also have the original box that is shown in the older photo (all black) of the truck. Both boxes are included in this sale. The box that is mounted on the truck now can be swapped out for the original box very easily. Section 1 of the box is approximately 12" x 6'8". Section 2 of the box is approximately 18" x 5'. Section 3 of the box is approximately 4' x 6'6". The box is approximately 4' high throughout.

This is a great truck for the hobbyist. You can make the box into whatever use you want. I currently use it as a photo studio for antique photography. Section 1 of the box is my old west bar, Section 2 is my area for developing photos (hence the white curtain that you see in the photos that makes it a functioning dark room), and Section 3 is used for equipment storage. The box area can be easily rearranged for a different application.

The engine has been (within the last 10 miles) thoroughly cleaned inside and out.

The commutator (distributor) is new, as are the plugs and plug wires.
The two kerosene lamps are not original to this year of Model TT but they look good and are complete.
The head gasket is new.
The carburetor is a new factory rebuilt.
The radiator leaks just a tiny bit out of the top, but has never bothered me.
The frame and engine have been sand blasted and repainted in the past year.
The front fenders have a few small dents that you can see in the pictures. The dents do not detract from the presentation of the truck.
The top covers of the cab and the box are new.
The seat and backrest of the interior of the cab are new.

The license plate mounted on the radiator is on an authentic antique Ford bracket and the tag is an authentic 1919 Kansas tag.

There is an electrical outlet in each of the three sections (compartments) of the box. You just have to plug an extension cord in at the left rear of the cab (as shown in one of the pics) and all of the three outlets are then available for use.

The decorative stuff that is in the primary picture is not part of this auction; just wanted to show how I use Section 1, the old west bar.

You can call me at 913-683-8063 for conversation or to get more pictures.

Talk to me about delivery - we might be able to make a deal that is good for you.

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
For more details about the study and the top companies, check out the press release posted below.

2015 Ford Mustang production starts in Flat Rock

Thu, 28 Aug 2014

Today's the day, Ford fans. Production has officially commenced on the sixth-generation 2015 Mustang at the company's Flat Rock, MI factory. As production ramps up, sales should kick off in the coming months.
The production news isn't just a bit deal for American fans. With the new Mustang getting a bespoke right-hand-drive variant, the pony car's worldwide availability has swollen to include 120 different countries, including its home nation.
"Mustang is and will continue to be an automotive icon," Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas, said in a statement. "Expanding its availability globally affords our customers around the world the opportunity to have a true firsthand Mustang experience - one unlike any other."

First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."
