A beautiful memory you left behind.

John M. Carlisle, a reporter
about town for the Detroit

Gently revealed the manner in
which the 1919 Ford was de-
signed in 80 days.
The item follows.
The 1949 Ford. named the
Fashion Car of the Year by
receiving the Fashion Academy
award, was styled in 81 days in
1916. George w. Walker, auto
motive stylist and industrial de
signer Of Detroit, received a

sident. George" said Breech,
I'VE want to talk to you right
away about styling our new car
Walker was an idea man with a
Sketching peel who had styled
1000 industrial products. Walker
and his staff made 80 rough
sketches on tissue paper of "hot
shot stuff in auto styling.
These sketches were trans
formed into is colored drawings
and submitted to the Ford poll
icy committee as ideas for Styl-
ing the new Ford. These top
Ford executives narrowed the
choice to three. Whereupon,
Walker and his staff then made
three quarter-sized models in
clay of them. This time the
policy committee arrived at his
Office at 9 a. m.
The committee picked "the
blue model" provided the rear
of another model was put on it.
Walker had already been work
ing with the Ford engineering
staff in dimensional planning.
The Ford styling department
was also at work. Walker then
made a f~ull-Scale model in clay
in the Ford engineering labora-
tory. But the lob still wasn't
done. Ford engineers and stvl-
lists made changes fitting The
demands of manufacturing, and
also made some refinements in
design. after 90 days." said
Rreech, 1--WE had a full-snale
model completed for STYLE and
within 90 dayS more we were
taking off the die models"
