So why was you only allowed black then ? Or were all cars black them days ?

 

obviously got a good deal on a job lot......


or they only had one spray gun and it took too long to clean between jobs.....

 

ironic really as now you have to pay extra to have it as some bloke has to find a straight shell!

(don't know if this is still true, it was in the 80's)

 

was that martin luther kings first draft of his speach but then hes speach writer " modded it"

 

Dennis Rodman

 

 

According to Clarkson on QI, it's arse...

He never said that, and Model T's weren't available in black, or if they were, for an extra cost (memory fails me).

He also didn't invent the production line, he perfected it. Again, if memory serves, it was Colt who first used the idea.

I have too much time on my hands.

 

Thats true in the 80's black was always part of the options package on certain models

 

the erst option colour was merc grey

 

IIRC from a documentary I once half missed, the Model T was available in various colours when it was a low volume car. When the T became a high volume product, only the black would dry fast enough, coupled to the fact that there would be the need for lots of different paint plants as cleaning one out to do a batch of colours would take too long.

 

I know on the XR3i's (mk4, dunno bout mk3) that to have black paint was an option that cost about £300 more
