Ford FT – collective page of the Ford Transit under the type code FT, from FT 100 to FT 1750, four- to six-cylinder, 1,205 to 1,550 kg unladen weight, up to 3,250 kg gross weight
This collective page gathers Ford vans registered under the type code FT – the abbreviation for the Ford Transit, the panel van built since 1965. The model names FT 100, FT 1000, FT 1100, FT 1150 and FT 1750 follow Ford's historical naming, in which the number after the code marks the payload or weight class of the respective Transit model; early Transit generations were built in Genk in Belgium and Southampton in Britain before production moved to Eastern Europe and Turkey.

The register lists here five versions with a displacement of 1,700 cm³, four to six cylinders, unladen weights from 1,205 to 1,550 kg, gross weights from 2,350 to 3,250 kg and widths from 1,870 to 2,060 mm.
For decades the Transit was the backbone of European delivery traffic, from trade businesses and courier services to camper and official-fleet conversions, competing directly with the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, VW LT and Renault Master.
On a used example, check rust on sills, door bottoms and the load floor, the condition of the rear axle and leaf springs under load, the seal of the sliding door and the service history of engine and clutch, the condition of the braking system, the function of the lights and any play in the steering, plus rust around the windscreen surround; spare parts are well available through Ford's broad network.
