Hi Rob, not a Model 'T' to be seen in any of the 3 photos. I am not sure what the chassis are, but hazarding a guess, I would say that they are the Hudson 1/2 ton chassis based on the Hudson Super Six. That chassis was used for passenger cars, ambulances and as troop carriers carrying up to 8 troops.

Regards Rick.
