According to the Henry Ford Museum:
Summary
Like all American automakers, Ford Motor Company did not build civilian automobiles during America's involvement in World War II. Instead, the company manufactured military equipment. After civilian auto production resumed, company executive Henry Ford II gifted the first new Ford car -- a 1946 Super Deluxe Tudor -- to U.S. President Harry Truman in September 1945.
