Thames (commercial Vehicles)
Thames (also known as Ford Thames or Fordson Thames) was a commercial vehicle brand produced by Ford of Britain. History The Thames name first appeared in 1939 as the Fordson Thames. Ford of Britain wanted to make a British brand identity and Thames became widely used. When Ford retired the Fordson brand in 1957 it continued to use Thames. In 1965 Ford dropped the Thames name. The Fordson E83W pre-dated the name Thames. It was a bonneted lorry built between 1938 and 1957. The Fordson Thames 7V was a forward control line built between 1939 and 1949 in ratings from 2 to 5 tons and 8 tons as a tractor. During World War II, civilian production was halted for military vehicles, in 1945 civilian production resumed. The 7V's forward control cab was cramped so the ET6 and ET7 introduced in 1949 were a bonneted design with ratings similar to the 7V. The ET6 had a V8 petrol engine while the ET7 had a Perkins diesel. In 1957 Thames introducing the heavy-duty Trader. It was availabl ...

Ford Thames 400E
The Ford Thames 400E is a commercial vehicle that was made by Ford UK and introduced in 1957. Production of the range continued until September 1965, by which time a total of 187,000 had been built. Publicity for the model included hiring the Cy Laurie band to make the promotional film short 'Band Wagon', in 1958, preserved in the 'Ford Film and Video Collection' at the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu History By the mid 1950s, Ford lagged well behind the competition in the light commercial market. The model still on offer until 1957 was the trusty but antiquated Fordson E83W, released in 1938. Studies were therefore made of the competition in this sector, with the Morris Commercial 10 cwt and 15/20 cwt models, of prewar design; Austin 10 cwt, and later their 25 cwt; Trojan 15 cwt van; and the Bedford 10/12 cwt model all coming in for scrutiny.
