The famous Model T Ford, the car that changed personal transportation around the world, was introduced in 1908. Ford Motor Co. built sedans, roadsters and open touring cars that were dependable and inexpensive. Buyers, particularly farmers and business owners, began to modify their vehicles so they could haul supplies and equipment in addition to people.

After the Model TT came the Model AA , followed by the Model BB in 1933. The truck business had become very competitive. The new more capable flathead V8-chassis trucks were modified by outside vendors or the owners to be used as delivery trucks, ambulances, mail trucks and stake trucks. The cab of the truck was built in the Borden’s Dairy shop in San Francisco. The cab is made of wood, and the bench seat is literally a wooden bench with a thin cushion for the bottom and 90-degree straight back. There were three models of this truck, and this one is the shortest of the three.
