Can a pick up haul a T?
Can a full size modern pickup truck haul a T running gear with maybe fenders and cowl?

Re: Can a pick up haul a T?
Thanks that photo tells me what I want to know about size. A motor and transmission shouldn't be too bad if I can get it up front some how. Having to get a trailer can kill the deal for me as I can't afford to spend a whole lot. I am trying to get a T going for off road use on the farm.

Re: Can a pick up haul a T?
I just had a complete Model T frame and running gear, minus the engine, delivered today. It is so light that two men easily picked it up and moved it around in my driveway. The engine is a pretty hefty lump of iron,though-you are going to need a hoist of some sort to get it in and out of your truck, if it is all in one piece.

It depends
It depends on the size of your pick up truck bed ...
The route you take ... The time of day you travel ... In some states - having a load in a pick up bed with the tailgate down will get you a ticket ... Jim |

Re: Can a pick up haul a T?
yes, take the front grease caps off and the spindles just clear the sides. blocks under the rear so the weight is not on the tailgate. loader on each end of the trip, leave the trailer home and forget the dot scales and troubles

Re: Can a pick up haul a T?
A morris minor can carry a T if you dismantle the T first.

Re: Can a pick up haul a T?
Parts yes, assembled vehicle maybe not, if you have a 1923 Coupe. It is six feet to the outside of the tires and 11.5 feet long. I rented a Uhaul car trailer to get my coupe home and it was less than $100. The Model T weighs about 1800-1900 pounds.

Re: Can a pick up haul a T?
I knew a guy who put a Model A on the back of one of those of VW transporter "pickups". It will fit, but holy cow!
Leakers, I have been reluctant to get a trailer hitch for my 2007 F150 with a V6. I guess I am a wimp! |
