1937 Diamond T 80 - $78,500 - St. Louis, MO - Diamond T was founded in 1905 by C.A. Tilt the son of a Chicago shoemaker. The company saw moderate success building a range of fairly conventional automobiles but a customer’s request for a truck in 1911 led Diamond T to transition to commercial truck production as it proved to be a much more profitable venture. The company grew to become one of Mack’s biggest competitors particularly in the pre-war era and nearly a quarter million Diamond Ts were built over their 56 year history.The famous Diamond T logo is said to have come from the elder Tilt who stitched the letter T into a piece of leather surrounded by a diamond – a symbol of quality. C.A. Tilt not only adapted the logo for his vehicles he also ensured they lived up to the level of quality the diamond suggested. Diamond T was often referred to as “the Cadillac of trucks” for their exceptional build quality as well as their uncommonly sophisticated style. Tilt himself is credited with saying on multiple occasions “A truck does not have to be homely” and he certainly ensured that with his machines – which incidentally include the almost mythical highly advanced Doodlebug Texaco tanker – which are always high on style and quality.The company’s best years came in the 1930s when sales for heavy trucks were quite robust. Enjoying a wave of success a light-duty pickup truck was added to the range to compete with similar offerings from Reo International and of course Mack. The Diamond T Model 80 of 1936 was more substantial than a Ford or Chevrolet but was far more accessible thank a full-sized heavy truck. Of course it was also quite handsome with a bold radiator grille curvaceous fenders and an aggressively laid-back windscreen. In spite of being the junior model the Model 80 was still quite large and could be had in single or dual rear wheel ¾ ton configuration. While it was big it was well proportioned which help mask its size and give it a very car-like appearance on the road. Fans of heavy trucks and pre-war classics alike will appreciate the Model 80 for its appealing style and exceptional rarity.This Model 80 pickup has been fully restored to a standard rarely seen on this type of vehicle. Quite often trucks of this nature are given more industrial-level restorations; however this fabulous Diamond T is very much the exception. It has been fully restored to a very high standard with excellent quality paintwork precise fit and finish and gorgeous chrome. While this was considered a “mid-sized” truck for its day it is still a substantial machine and when finished in this striking shade of bright red with a bold green stripe makes quite a statement. The paint quality is gorgeous with crisp clean reflections on the sweeping fenders. Massive 20” wheels (dual in the rear) are painted in matching red with silver rims and wrapped in period appropriate tires. Very good quality chrome adorns the bumpers grille and minimal body trim. The large and deep cargo bed features nicely refinished wood planks.The cabin has been fantastically restored to beautiful condition yet remains true to original. Heavy duty green upholstery and rubber floor mats remind you this is still a truck meant for work while the two-tone green and cream instrument panel add a touch of class. A full complement of chrome rimmed gauges appears to be in very good order and the large steering wheel presents nicely though does show a few cracks. The raked-back split windscreen opens independently for driver and passenger to provide a bit of comfort in an otherwise workmanlike cab. Beneath that long hood is a QX-series inline six sourced from Hercules engines of Canton Ohio. The big flathead six runs well and is very well detailed in industrial gray with gloss black accessories and proper wire-type hose clamps.The Model 80 was in production for only a short period of time from mid-1936 to mid-1938 and it is not known exactly how many were produced though enthusiasts estimate it to be only a few thousand examples with only a fraction of that surviving the rigors of daily abuse. We are confident that few of the survivors have been treated to such a high quality and visually stunning restoration as this. Rare stylish and very unusual this fabulous Diamond T Model 80 makes a bold statement from the moment you first see it.

The “T” in Diamond T was Chicago’s Charles A. Tilt, and the marque’s distinctive logo came from his father’s shoe company, where the diamond signified quality and the “T” stood for the family name. Tilt manufactured a few custom-built passenger cars, starting in 1905, but only entered truck manufacturing in 1911, at a customer’s request. Diamond T trucks quickly gained renown for its high-quality components and assembly, and the company’s growth dictated larger facilities by 1916. During World War I, the company built some 1,500 Liberty trucks for the war effort and another 2,000 following the end of hostilities.By 1926, Diamond T was building trucks as large as 12 tons, including a six-wheel model, and by 1933, modern features, including V-windshields and steel-roofed cabs, appeared. Diesel engines were available by 1936, when the Diamond T lineup was restyled with a streamlined theme. The Model 201, a one-ton pickup, was introduced in 1938 and used a Hercules engine and Warner Gear transmission. Highly regarded for its rugged and sturdy character, the 201 was frequently converted for such difficult tasks as towing. Following World War II, competition with Ford and Chevrolet for the rural pickup truck market proved very difficult. Beginning in 1951, Diamond T limited production to heavy-duty commercial vehicles, and in 1958, the company sold out to White Motor Co.According to a previous owner, the 201 offered here was originally purchased by a family grocery store in Waldick, Wisconsin, and remained in their ownership until 2009. It was then sold to a collection in Southern California and was cosmetically restored to its present appearance in a classic red livery over a very straight original body and fenders. The seat was reupholstered in brown vinyl, while much of the remainder of the interior is original and well-preserved, as is the window glass. The 201 retains the original six-volt electrical system, with an aftermarket electric fuel pump added, while the generator and other electrical components have been rebuilt. The truck is also equipped with original vacuum-operated windshield wiper motors and an original accessory heater, and the pickup bed has new wooden stake liners.With a wonderful, thoroughly authentic and well-maintained appearance, this Diamond T would be an ideal addition to any collection of great American trucks.
