Original 1926 Ford Motor Company Dealer Purchase Invoice for a new 1926 Ford Model T truck Cab & Chassis with a starter.. The truck was serial #13584897 and is written in pencil on the invoice. It was manufactured at the Ford Kearny New Jersey factory in April of 1926.
The invoice comes with the Ford plant Inspector's tag. The inspector was George Codding.
The truck was sold to Ford Dealer Charles Anderson Sales & Service of Accord New York. The dealer purchased the truck on May 5, 1926.
There is an invoice from Martin Parry Company of Kearny NJ, where they installed a dump body on the truck on the same day as the purchase. It is invoiced to Charles Anderson Ford.
Also included, is a Repair Order from Gash-Stull Ford at Chester Pennsylvania, also dated May 5th, where they installed a Ruckstell low speed rear axle on the truck, to replace the high speed axle. Chester PA is 105 miles from Kearny NJ and it is somewhat of a mystery how all of this was accomplished on the same day.
So to sum up, this lot has 4 pieces.
1. Factory invoice from Kearny NY Ford Plant.
2.Truck Inspector's Ticket from the Kearny Plant.
3.Martin Parry Co. invoice for a dump bed, installed on the truck.
4.Gash-Stull Ford Dealer Repair Order where the truck had a low speed rear axle installed to replace the high speed one.
This paperwork came to me still fastened together with the rusty straight pin it was attached with in 1926!
