Ford Taunus 17 M SUPER First paint! Super original car, origin 1963
General description :
We have an original Dutch supplied 1963 Ford Taunus 17M Super. Let's immediately get to the nub of it: the car still has its complete first coat of paint! Both the in and outside of the car is wonderfully original and is in unbelievably fine condition. The 44,200 km on the clock is almost certainly correct. The “coachwork” is incredibly authentic with nice and thin, correctly aligned panelwork. The quality of the original paintwork is brilliant with a typical 60’s colour finish. The car has kept its original wheels with correctly sized tyres. The totally authentic interior is simply gorgeous. As soon as you pop your head inside you immediately appreciate that here we are dealing with a beautifully preserved original vehicle. Instruments and controls are also in a wonderful original state as is the factory fitted Blaupunkt radio. The two-tone vinyl upholstery is a perfect match to the exterior and is immaculate. The same is true for the carpets and roof lining. Mechanically it has been very well maintained and it is immediately obvious this car has always been cherished. The Ford Taunus 17M was fitted with the top of the range 1.7 engine developing 60 Ps with a manual 4-speed gearbox. The modest 60 Ps may not seem a lot these days but don’t forget the Ford Taunus 17M only weighs 910 Kg. The engine runs smoothly together with its precisely working transmission. The car comes with the original owner’s manual, Ford dealership brochure, a technical manual and the original sales tax return, unique! This highly original Ford Taunus 17M, still in her first coat and in wonderful original condition, is one destined for the truly dedicated Ford collector.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
