These Thorco Dual Engine Ford Trucks have never been offered for sale publicly before.

There are very few machines that are of the caliber in design and provenance of the Thorco Dual Engine Fords. These trucks are in the realm of the GMC Futureliner.

These Trucks were designed at the very beginning of WWII to haul B-24 bomber components from Ford automobile plants in Michigan to Consolidated Aircraft Factories in Witchita, Kansas, Fort Worth, Texas, and SanDiego, California. In a period of a year and a half, a fleet of 96 Dual Engine trucks logged over 3,800 trips, putting over 1,600 B-24 Liberator bombers in the air. Only 46 Thorco Fords were built.

A later version was made, but the Thorco is the pinnacle of design for the Dual Engine Bomber Haulers.

At this time there are only 2 of these trucks known to exist. This listing is for both trucks. One is restored, one is not. I am the 3rd owner of both. Just to prevent questions, I will NOT separate them.
