The Ford G917t is a German, mainly military, WWII truck. The first prototype vehicles appeared at the turn of 1938/1939, and serial production started in 1939 and lasted until 1942. About 25,000 copies of this car were built at that time. The car was powered by a single 3.6 liter 8-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 90 HP. The car was 6.6 meters long and 2.25 meters wide. The permissible load capacity was 3 tons.

The G917t model was developed on the basis of the Ford V8 civilian truck produced at the Ford plant in Cologne, Germany. Mass production of the G917t also began at the same plant. The car was powered by a very similar engine as the Ford V8, but its displacement and maximum power were increased. Also, the entire structure of the new model was strengthened to meet the requirements of military service. The car had a rear-wheel drive. The Ford G917t truck was used on a large scale by the German army, primarily as a transport vehicle in operations against: Poland (1939), France (1940), in the war on the Eastern Front (from 1941), in the campaign in Africa North (1941-1943) or in the Italian campaign (1943-1945).
