Default Re: Phaeton vs. Touring with the 1928 Ford

Hey Mr. Williams, great to see you here, ...and enjoyed sitting under your presidency!

I have one thought to add to your question, ...why didn't Ford call the 'A' Roadster a Runabout? Adding to that, he used the term Roadster on the 'T' in the early portion but later versions were named Runabouts.

While other's comments above are clearly plausible, I suspect we need to understand how two different men named Ford was involved. Defining each individual's exact duties regarding the Model-A will likely never be known. I suspect the naming fits into that category.
