Are you looking for a truck to haul things around your farm, but want it to be as primitive as can be? Check out this rarely seen 100 year old Dumptruck! MotoeXotica is pleased to present this 1917 Ford Model T Dump Bed. This truck draws a crowd and sure to be a hit at any car show or display for your company!
This Model T features a rare larger cab that is made out of wood and painted black, as well as a matching color dump bed, which is operated manually. It features headlights and a taillight, which are inoperable, 30 and 33 inch wooden wheels, and a pop-out windshield.
Inside, the single black bench seat is in good condition, as is the painted wooden floor. This T is very primitive, so the only control you get on the dash is the headlight switch that surrounds the ignition keyhole, and the basic pedals and levers.
The engine in this Model T is a 177 cubic inch inline 4, which is untested, although it does turn over easily, and was reportedly running before we purchased it. The transmission, which is also untested, is a two-speed planetary design.
The Ford Model T, better known as the worlds first mass-produced car, was produced from 1908 to 1927, and remained mostly the same throughout its production time. 16.5 million Ts were produced, making it the eight most-produced car ever. They came in many different styles to fit whatever jobs needed to be done – ranging from hauling the family around in a 4 door sedan to a truck, like this one, to haul whatever you needed. Nowadays, these are becoming harder to find, especially in more original condition.
This truck is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. It does not feature an odometer. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear, mileage exempt Wisconsin title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
