Classic Ford TT Commercials
Standing in a very wet colliery yard at Beamish Museum is this pair of classic Ford Model-TT commercial vehicles of the past.
On the left is a 1921 Ford Model-TT 13-seater Country Bus. The bus has a Ruston & Hornsby B13 body, a 3224cc engine and is UK registered EP 1673.
On the right is a 1919-built Ford Model-TT tanker truck in the livery of petroleum company Shell-Mex. The truck is registered SV 6239.
The Ford Model-TT commercial chassis was introduced by the company in 1917. It is built onto a modified and strengthened Model-T frame and has a heavy-duty rear axle. It was then left to the many body building companies at that time to construct and install all manner of commercial bodies to the chassis.
The vehicles were at Beamish for their 2023 Steam Gala.
