I am not familiar with this model year / body style. Is this a TT? Most TTs I have seen don't have pickup boxes, and look heavier than this. Is it a TT body on a car(pickup) chassis?

Fun build, many can be found done in recent time. Wasn't ever a Ford T body type of a closed cab and bed on T chassis.

Use the '24-'25 all steel TT closed cab, placed on regular T chassis and adding a period runabout '25 metal pickup box.

Taked a rusted out, busted-up, dogged-out closed cab, rebuild it and do a 3" top chop.... put it on a T chassis with a pickup bed.

Looks like somebody got mad at that passenger side door and took a hammer to it. Jim Patrick
