The Ford Model T was produced from 1908 to 1927, and over 16.5 million were built. The Model T was powered by a 20-horsepower 4-cylinder engine. The Model T Touring Car pictured here is a 1912 model. Despite Ford's famous statement that a customer could buy the Model T in any color as long as it was black, early Model Ts were made in a variety of colors, and all 1912 Model Ts were painted midnight blue with black fenders. Not until 1914 was black the only color available. Touring cars like this one were by far the most popular in the early years. This example was displayed at the Towe Ford Museum (now the California Automobile Museum) in Sacramento, California, in March 1992.
