The globe represents Ford’s global fame and presence. The 12M (type) stands for masterpieces. A bit of history: after a break caused by the war, the Ford factory in Cologne started producing again in 1952. At the time, they were building the first ultra modern post-war German Ford. This saloon was a reliable and robust luxury car, designed for Ford’s richer clientele. G13AL is the code of this model. G stands for Germany, 1 stands for developed after 1951, 3 stands for 1.2 litre engine type, A for air and L for luxury. Why L for luxury? Because the standard model G13A, the Taunus 12 without the M, was made for less wealthy customers. Registration documents: no. License plate: - A written sales agreement is possible. This is a used vehicle. The Ford can be viewed and picked up in Ewijk (Gelderland), the Netherlands. Transport is possible via a transport company (at buyer’s cost).
