    How much cement the Chinese used those three years? As for the Model Ts’ 30 shades of black, how were able to tell which Model T was yours and not some other person’s?

    Yes, their huge dam building project. They bought just about every available amount they could get.

    I’d like to see the source of the Ford’s story. The cars were black. If there was a different in shades it was most likely a batch quality thing than a production plan.

    Um, for the entire 20th century. Seems to me we had some pretty well entrenched liberal administrations over that time. FDR leaps to mind.

    Standard production was black but for an extra $25, you could get any color you wanted. So, company fleet vehicles had their own colors.

    I’m a little disappointed at the illustration for the mailed women. They don’t look like they just came out of a package or anything.

    To paraphrase the Rolling Stones.. “I see a red car and I wanted it painted black. No colors anymore, I want them to turn black…”

    Eight will get you five that whoever wrote that bit about China does not know that cement and concrete are different from each other.
