Ford Motor Company of Canada was established in 1904, an initiative of the carriage maker, Gordon McGregor with the parent company in Detroit. The first model T's went out of the Canadian factory in October 1908. The company still exists in 2010. The 'Tin Lizzie put the world on wheels' - Function
-
Owner driven passenger vehicle for general transortation. - Technical
-
No such model existed as Doctor's Coupe at Ford's. This name existed, though, for carriages. It seems that this model name was allotted to this type of coupe over time probably because it offered the features that doctors would have appreciated: enclosed body allowing protection from weather elements, good affordable price, good reliability, trunk to keep medical material and objects received as payments. Coupes were introduced at Ford in 1909 with the new model T. They were discontinued in 1910 (or produced in very small quantities until 1915). The vehicle then returned to the market with the name coupelet. not much technical change since the 1926 model who had brakes improved, new tires, and more body colors offered. - Area Notes
