Miscellaneous Info: Only one vehicle was produced using registration number USA W1307.  The vehicle were originally fitted with fenders, but later removed.  There is some information available stating that the T9 was created using the armored body of one of the T8 Armored Cars, but we are not sure if that is accurate.

Similar to the T6-4WD, T6, T7, T8 and T10 Armored Cars as they were all based on commercial truck chassis and armored by the US Quartermaster Corps, Holabird Depot, Maryland.
