Help please! January Ford Times 1928 - do you have a copy?

Post by KiwiFordGuy » 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.

Refer previous post http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/29 ... 1183222782

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

Further to this - is there an online source for these Ford Times? Thanks

Just did a search for Ford times and came across some other issues for sale on EBay. Also try Online Books. . It seems to be another possible source for the early issues and gives a history on the publication. There were others sources mentioned in a general search. One was Open Library.
Good luck.

Thank you John, appreciate your time and input.

I think it may be the English Ford Times as it seems there maybe a United States, Canadian and English version?

I just need the article and photo (scanned/emailed etc,) if anyone does have this copy?

Thanks again
