    Is this a Ford cab? If so, what year and model. It does have a Dodge tailgate, so the box may be Dodge, I've searched high and low for pictures of a Ford pick up cab the wasnt a rpu. Thanks!

    air filter....taillights....maybe a really good body man just didn't like the fins on his 59 Eldo....

    I agree that it is 25-27 Ford

    that is a 27 model ford. i dont think the 26 model had the cowl vent....then again i may be thinking of another model on the cowl vent thing.

    25 is liek the black trucks pictured with the smaller cowls.

    It's not a cowl vent...it's the gas fill door. Both 26-27 had them...

    The round corners on the rear window definitely is not Ford.

    Nope. I am sitting 10 feet from one, and that is not it. It is a T cowl, cowl post and doors, circa '26-'27. The rest looks like home-made stuff.

    Keep in mind, the '28-'29 A and AA closed cab tucks used the T's cowl posts and doors, but the have a Model A cowl, and cab corners/back panels unique to those two years.

    It is not 26- 27 modal T truck. the door and cawl went straight down. The doors also have a double rib and there is about a 3 inch flat piece between the cawl and windshield frame.

    The engine is obviously not Ford, my guess is that it is planned obsolescence with some quality Dodge and Ford parts wrapped around it.:D

    What you have is a '26-'27 Model T car that has a homemade panel from the doors back to make it a pickup. The TT truck had a much smaller cab with a very short cowl. I know what you have because I have the parts to build my own in storage, the only difference is I'm going to use the back of the coupe as my cab, just removing the rear side windows to shorten it.
