Gentlemen:
Please permit me to modify the challenge to not the oldest, BUT----BUT,
The oldest daily runner that's still being used for work related hauling.... THAT's the true measure of the vehicle's value... HOW old can it be and still do a day's work (Hauling bikini's and six packs doesn't qualify as work)?????
I respect the Model T's, of 15 million built, about 1 million are known to exist, and many are daily runners, but I doubt any T owner would load his "TT" down with a ton load and go over to the next town or county in it.... Whereas, my 1971 Kaiser Jeep has moved everything from office furniture to locomotive bells, to firewood, garbage and even hauled M105A2's, sometimes for seven or eight hours at highways speeds.... A common day's work.
Let's see how the chips fall in that category....
Cheers,
Kyle F. McGrogan

A Dodge WC-1 4x4 that was made in 1941 for the National Guard.
I also have in the collection a 1934 military issued wheeled flight line fire extinguisher, does that count?
