This thread is also a Global Rollcall for surviving Early Ford Cutaway Chassis and a quest for more information about Cutaway Chassis. Cutaway Chassis are featured in the book The Ford Shows by Lorin Sorensen.
The Cutaway Chassis were made by the apprentices and were used in exhibitions, shows and displays and for illustrations in manuals. They were then lent or given to colleges and trade schools. They were often painted bright or unusual colors and had many parts chrome plated. Some had grilles, some had body parts and cutaway bodies. Some were powered chassis with the starter wound to industrial electricity and could be operated by pressing a button and the engine, drivetrain and wheels turned. These chassis had all the wheels off the ground and sat on stands made out of cut down back axle casings.

This is a Global Rollcall of surviving Cutaway Chassis. I will update this as more appear, so if you know of another one, then please post it in the thread.
