1946 Ford brochure

Jeff George collected this brochure in 1946.

Some comments on the early post-war Fords from Jeff: " I remember that there was very little difference in the 1946, 1947, and 1948 Fords.  The only difference between the 1946 and 1947 was that the parking lights were moved below the headlights and an ornament was added above the grille.  There was no change from the 1947 to the 1948...

My main memory of the 1946 Ford is that my uncle, who lived across the street from us, won one in a drawing at a local Houston Ford dealer!  It was a four-door Super Deluxe (as opposed to the Deluxe) in a beautiful maroon color.  Within a year, the color had faded to a dull finish!  This was a typical problem with bright colored paint on cars in those days.
