Re: Gunmetal Blue?
Ford Motor Argentina was founded in Buenos Aires in 1913.
Its first products were Model Ts assembled from "Complete Knock Down" (CKD) kits imported from Detroit and add a 20% of parts produced locally like Upholstery and tires.
Ford in Argentina began building cars in 1922, a stamping and assembly factory was inaugurated in “La Boca”
In 1927 at the plant "La Boca" came the Ford "T" number 100,000.
The paint colours available in 1928 were the same as in the US.
My First model A ford was a “Niagara blue” 1928 Phaeton, and the colour was the same like painted in US.
Here you have a pair of "La Boca"assembly plant photos
