Showcasing the drool-worthy

A 1914 Model T gets its coat of, in all probability, black paint. It's up for debate as to whether Henry Ford ever actually said of the car, "You can have any color you want, as long as it is black," but it is true that through much of the Model T's run, buyers had little choice in the matter. According to The Henry Ford, the car was available in various colors until 1914, when the company switched to the one color exclusively because the black enamel paint it used dried faster than other paints, which made for faster production. In 1926, spurred in part by a sales slump, Ford once again began to offer a variety of colors.
