White Fords What year did Ford first offer the color white to the public ???
|
Re: White Fords Henry Ford made quite a few cars prior to 1908 that could be purchased in about any color the customer wanted. I don't really have any idea when the first use of white may have been but I'd wager in was in those early years before mass production. After the Model T began its iconic assembly line run, the color options would have made the basic car more expensive so black became a standard that lasted a for long time.

Re: White Fords I believe he meant the "modern era" and I would guess 52. Of course commercial vehicles could be whatever color the customer wanted.

According to the Paint and Finish Guide white was standard on the 1931 Deluxe pickup.

This picture opens up some questions. It has often been said that in Australia, Ford introduced the first Coupe Ute. In the USA, the first official Coupe Ute was the 1957 Ford Ranchero. Looking at this picture, and it seems that this is a perfect example of a Coupe Ute that predates the Australian invention? |
Re: White Fords An accidental Ute! Or a fancy PU.

Re: White Fords That's a 1931 Deluxe Pickup. It was a limited production model at the end of the '31 year. Most were purchased by General Electric and/or Firestone. Very few survivors.
