Oxford's newly tooled Ford Transit Mk 1 is a replica of the first Ford
Transit which Ford of Europe started manufacturing in 1965 as a light
commercial cargo van. The fact that the marque has remained a leading
Ford model, evolving over the years is testament to its popularity and
longevity with over eight million sales to date. The vehicle was
designed as a successor to the Ford 400E Van Registered GYH 194D from
1966, our model might well represent the original white van'! It
features the long wheelbase, widened wheel arches and rear double doors
of its real-life counterpart. Contrasting black has been applied to the
chassis, window surrounds, radiator and radiator slots, interior and the
steering wheel. The wheels are also white with silver hub caps. Door
handles and the wing mirrors mounted on the front of the bonnet are also
silver while the bumpers are finished in chrome.
