FOR SALE: 1944 FORD T-16 UNIVERSAL CARRIER

finnished-007

This is Absolutely the best T-16 that I have seen by far in my 40 years of selling MV’s ,

There could be one out there somewhere as good and as complete but I see no way one could be better. It has gone through a complete and very detailed ground up restoration ( Photo documented ) and has more original as issued accessories with it than I thought was possible.

I could go on & on but the photos will speak for themselves and and with the photos will be posted the description of the restoration . The vehicle has been Home garage stored and starts and runs as New.

Accessories if fully tricked out as shown in the photographs:

  • Gun mounts for PIAT (rear transit and front action), Bren Guns (rear transit and front action), Two Rifles and Smoke Discharger.
