Lutsmann Model
Benz Patent
Benzike
Quadricycle
- Designed by Henry Ford
The first Ford to arrive in South Africa was a
1903 Ford
Model A
Imported by Mr Arthur Youldon of Johannesburg.
In September 1903
Mr Youldon, an importer, was in New York where he saw Henry Ford demonstrate his
new car. He immediately placed his order with Henry Ford, who informed him
that it would be the first Ford to be sold outside North America. The Ford
Motor Company was founded earlier that year, on 16 June
1903.
The car only arrived in February
1904 in Port Elizabeth from where it had to be transported by train to
Johannesburg. This car survived to this day and can be viewed at the
Heidelberg Transport Museum near Johannesburg.
