1920’s Ford “C” Cab Farm Truck for a little boy’s first birthday.
1920’s Ford “C” Cab Farm Truck for a little boy’s first birthday.
After seeing the Ford “C” Cab Farm Truck I made for the local boys & girls club Easter Guessing competition our youngest daughter asked if I could make a similar but smaller version for Asher’s cousin Sammy’s first birthday.

I had the pattern for the “C” Cab so it wasn’t too difficult to scale down the farm truck to a smaller tray back truck with not too much extra detail to ensure it’s playable for a little bloke.

The timber is a mixture of Merbau, Spotted Gum, Blackheart Sassafras with Beech Wheels [thank you Ian, aka Chief tiff] while the finish is my home made Wipe On Poly.
Cheers, crowie

What a little ripper Peter!. The young bloke will grow into this toy, it should last for many years.
Hope he has as much fun playing with it as you have had in making it.
Keep on truckin',
Alan...
