Help please! January Ford Times 1928 - do you have a copy?
Posted: Mon Mar 08, 2021 6:28 pm
Hi all,
Does anyone have a copy of the aforementioned Model T Times?
I am not sure if it is the US or Canadian issue... was there an issue for Great Britain too?
I am looking for a photo that I recently saw mention of (and an article if an article was included) that I believe shows the December 1927 Launch of the Model A Ford at Holland Park. This photo should also show 1 or 2 early Canadian Model C Fords that were brought to England by Ford Britain in the 1920s.
I find this interesting and it’s a long shot (but I can’t help but to chase it up) as my Family had a Model C that Ford (Ford ‘who’ I don’t know - I always assumed the Colonial Motor Co) apparently purchased back from the family in New Zealand c.1925 according to family lore.

I have always wondered what became of this car because to buy it back suggests it may have survived but so far I’ve had no success in finding it. There is a photo of a Model C leading a procession of the new “New Beauties” in NZ which I believe is probably the family car but this is the last I know of it. My Grandads cousin always said the Model C was tidied up/restored and went to an exhibition.
Also as an aside I am looking for an early 2 cylinder Ford of my own - if you know of any projects or older restorations please feel welcome to send me a private message.
Thanks Alex
