Beschreibung
When the new Taunus 12M was introduced in 1952, there was great news from German Ford. With modern US-influenced pontoon chassis, its well ahead of Opel and Volkswagen. P1 got its first Facelift in 1955, but this one still has the original two-piece grill!
Originally from Gillstads Bilmuseum, where it stood until the beginning of the 2000s. Its need a MOT/Test before it hits the road.

Fakten zum Modell
At its launch, the car placed Ford ahead of the pack, being unusually modern in terms of the bits that showed. It was one of the first new cars to appear in Germany since before the war, and featured a radical ponton format “three box” body as pioneered (at least in Germany) by the 1949 Borgward. The three-box car body format would soon become mainstream, but when the Ford Taunus 12M appeared in 1952 competitor manufacturers including Opel, Volkswagen and Auto Union were still competing with models based closely on designs originating in the 1930s.
