- Twin rear wheels
- Rare example
The 1968 Ford Transit marked a significant step in commercial vehicle design, becoming an icon of practicality and versatility. Built in the UK and Germany, it featured a robust body-on-frame construction and a range of engines, including durable inline-fours and V4s. With its boxy shape and wide load area, the Transit became a favorite among tradespeople, emergency services and delivery companies. Its car-like handling and accessible maintenance made it a standout in its class. Over the years, the Transit gained cult status, remembered fondly for its reliability and workhorse nature, it laid the foundation for Ford’s dominance in the van market.
This Ford Transit is fitted with a useful flatbed with twin rear wheels and features a 2,400cc diesel engine with five-speed transmission. This rare example benefits from a push button start, driving lamps and a reversing light. This handsome commercial is sign written and presents well in blue coachwork with an orange grille. We are informed that this classic Transit ran well on a recent test but has not seen extensive use for several years and may require some attention. Offered to auction with a V5C registration document. Consigned by Dominic Lake
