Any color as long as it is black!

Know what a Model T is?Well it is one of the first cars from the Ford automobile company.Well if you have seen a pic of one,you would have noticed that its always black.Ever wondered why?Well the reason is not that there were only black and white photos then.

Well the answer is simple.

During the time of  the model T it was in high demand.So Henry Ford(Founder of Ford) said that  “Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black”.Its because black is a very cheap color and it also dries fast and  thus more cars could be produced..As a matter of fact, during the lifetime production of the Model T, over 30 different types of black paint were used on various parts of the car. These were formulated to satisfy the different means of applying the paint to the various parts, and had distinct drying times, depending on the part, paint, and method of drying.
