We spent $75,000 to buy abandoned post office land—expecting nothing more than forgotten buildings and dust.
What we didn’t expect…
was to uncover a 1925 U.S. Mail Truck (Ford Model TT), abandoned for decades and left to rot in silence.
Buried in rust, frozen in time, and nearly erased by history, this truck once carried mail through America nearly a century ago. The engine was silent, the body severely corroded, and every system had surrendered to time. Most people would have walked away.
We didn’t.
This video documents the entire journey—from land purchase and discovery, to one of the most detailed full rust restorations we’ve ever attempted.
In this film, you’ll see:
The moment the abandoned mail truck is discovered
Complete disassembly and structural rust repair
Careful metal restoration and surface preparation
Primer and Army Green paint application
Full mechanical rebuild and drivetrain reassembly
Engine recommissioning after decades of silence
And finally… the first successful test drive
No shortcuts.
No fake progress.
No rushed restoration.
Every step was done with patience, realism, and respect for history.
This isn’t just about restoring a truck — it’s about reviving a forgotten piece of America’s postal past, hidden on abandoned land and brought back to life the right way.
👉 Watch until the end to see the first test drive.
