Description:

This truck is sold as is where is. This Diamond T- Model 404 came from Illinois, was originally used on a Hog farm in South Carolina.It is an original and unaltered truck , with an Oak covered dump bed. The previous owner had it running when it was parked in a barn in Illinois, where it sat for a decade.It has surface rust and dents in the fender but the frame and cab can be restored. Safari windows crank open and close. I have not tried to start it, I have too many projects and am passing it on to someone who will take the time to restore it. The 4 speed gearbox works as I have it parked with 1st gear engaged. I pulled it from the delivery low boy to where it is parked now in my drive way. It will roll and steer, and can be loaded on a low boy.
Buyer pays all shipping costs. All sales final , Please contact me if you wish to see the truck in person.
