Not seeing it under that number or name but I have seen photos of similar trucks from the Ford Archives.

If it were in Colorado it would be at my place by now. No way I guy could afford to ship that thing. Very nice truck. I have lots of Ford Archive photos of trucks like that doing hard work. Thanks for the photo.

I don't see a fifth wheel plate on the frame. Maybe this truck had a box van or dump bed on it at one time. It is a pretty nice truck. This is the first 10 wheel truck I have seen.

The other interesting thing is the fenders and head lights look like those on 1939 trucks.

It would be nice to see a 10 wheeler truck like this set up as a semi tractor with a period correct trailer. It would be pretty useless but really neat!

Put a rollback bed on it and you would have one helluva toy hauler.

Should say Baumis warford somewhere on the tandem setup. Does it have the splitter box? Sort of like a transfer case making it a twin screw.

The fenders are the same as 38-39 except it was either the early ones or the lates did not have a notch for the bumper irons.

There was a 42-47 truck like that around here a number of years ago but it had a tag axle and a walking beam sorta deal that had a roller chain and a sproket on the frame. Dash had a ID tag that said Truckstell conversion.



I did have a 1955 that was a full screw tandem 5 and 4 with a lincoln engine.
That 41 ford is a very cool truck.
