I am not a fan of C Cabs, but I probably should be.
This one is on Ebay, I have no connection to the truck or the seller.
Here is the description:
1925 Model TT 1 Ton Truck Stake Bed
Fully Restored
Apparised. Fuel has been removed for storage but not oil. Ready to fuel up and drive.
Lanterns on the side are real wick lamps.
Engine# 947-4111
VIN: 1224-2327
Condition of engine and transmission were rebuilt as part of the frame up restoration.
Warford Transmission Direct Under Over
Larger Drum Rucksell Rear End

**********************************
Assuming the description is accurate, you could not build one for this price. The asking price is actually low, But I doubt it would bring half the asking piece on the open market. TT's are the real DEAL in the Model T world!
However, If I were looking for a C Cab I wouldn't hesitate to buy this truck!
Where am I wrong?

Re: TT Ebay C cab
This truck is not "restored". At least not to factory specs. The bare wood is just plain silly.
No one with half a brain would have set themselves up for the maintenance of clear coated
wood on a work vehicle, like a TT flatbed. Painting the wheels and wood will be easy enough,
but changing the color on a body is no small or inexpensive task. I love C-cabs, but someone's
"better ideas" are going to add a whole bunch of work and expense to the purchase price to
bring it to the claimed status of "fully restored". Something to think about, if a person cares
and wants to make the truck OEM "restored".

"Larger Drum Rucksell Rear End - This option was to make highway speeds more easily."
I guess the sell is not familiar with this type of rear end. There's no battery. It has early running boards.
Nice truck, but $9,500?? I doubt it will bring that much, appraisal or not.
