A bold new grille
identifies this as a 1934 Ford. The Windsor, Ontario-based
manufacturer will sell 14,442 of Ford passenger cars throughout the
Dominion of Canada in 1934.
|
The Great Depression
began in 1929 and seemed to have a monstrous hunger of its own. The
economic downturn had taken an enormous toll on every sector of the world's
economy. Especially hard hit were the automakers. Small ones simply
collapsed and even the giants feared for their futures. Only Nash and
GM were safe and that was because of their deep pockets.
Folks in charge at Ford
of Canada had watched helplessly as sales slid from 41,399 units in
1929 to a paltry 16,565 units delivered in 1931. Sales were off
another 5,000 units in 1932 when the tally reached only 11,447 units.
It didn’t appear that things could possibly get worse but the final
1933 sales figure was only 9,177 Ford passenger car units delivered
throughout the Dominion. Sales of seven imported Lincolns and ten
British Fords did little to pump up the bottom line.
The magnificent 1934 Lincoln found only seven homes in the Dominion this year. |
Bleak sales figures
trickling into the company offices in Windsor, Ontario only served to
underscore the horrors of daily life throughout the country. On the
Prairies, dust storms so fierce that they blackened the skies for
hours at a time, dumped tonnes of silt on everything in their paths.
There were no crops; millions starved. There was no market for
fish. From Cape Breton to Vancouver Island, tens of thousands of
hungry, homeless men wandered the countryside in hopes of work. They
looked until they were broken. In Newfoundland, unemployed men were
rounded up and marched 16 kilometres to work and back and paid only six
cents for the day under a government scheme that was much hated.
This 1934 Ford Deluxe Fordor Sedan listed for $625 f.o.b. Windsor, Ontario. All Fords featured safety glass. |
Surprisingly there was
much innovation by the automakers during these troubled times. The
introduction of the V-8 engine in 1932 had been an important coup for
Ford. It gave the company a significant edge on competitors who
produced six-cylinder products. Ford wisely tested the waters by
continuing to sell the four-cylinder Model B alongside the V-8 that
year and they did the same in 1933 as well. The Model B became redundant in
1933 when Ford of Canada began to import the thoroughly modern
little Model Y from its factory in Dagenham, England. This year, the
domestically sourced four-banger was dropped, its place neatly filled
with small, duty-free Fords from the UK.
Ford introduced the Model Y for the European market in 1931. The little car with the 933-cc engine would find buyers in Canada, too. |
Changes to the
domestically produced Ford envelope were very minor for 1934.
Nonetheless, ad copy waxed enthusiastic about the Ford’s new lines.
Champagne was broken out for each modification. Well, that is a bit
of an exaggeration, considering the hard times, so it is sufficient
to say that a glass was raised to the new Ford. Changes consisted
primarily of fewer bars in the grille and the radiator shell was
flattened somewhat. Headlight surrounds were flatter. Hubcaps carried
painted V-8 emblems rather than chrome embossing. Hood louvres were
straightened; they had been curved previously. Though one almost
needed a magnifying glass to tell the difference, it didn’t stop
advertising from bragging a little. “It was a great car in 1933. A
still better car in 1934.”
Salesmen were trained to steer “the woman motorist” toward the 1934 Ford V-8 Three-Window Coupe because of the car’s unusual grace and style. |
The classy engine-turned
panels used on the dash were replaced with paint and wordsmiths drew
attention to the new interiors, deeper seat cushions, stronger seat
springs, new tufted upholstery choices and the clear-vision
ventilation system. This clever system permitted increased air intake
by use of a new window winder that moved the glass rearward, this
allowing a draft to permeate the cabin. It was pointed out that fresh
air could also be drawn from the cowl vent and that could be
supplemented by opening up the windshield to let in more of a breeze.

The virtues of the 2 844-millimetre (112-inch) wheelbased model were sung. “A longer wheelbase is not always
more passenger room. The V-8 type engine takes less space, leaves
more inside body room. It is not the length of the wheelbase that
counts, but the available passenger space.” No item was too small
to praise in the dark days of 1934; even something as mundane as the
new garnish mouldings and the new cove headliner was front and
centre in the headlines.
Mechanically the 3.6-litre (221-cubic inch) mill was fitted with a new air filter and better breathing resulted from installation of a dual carburetor and dual
intake manifold. These changes meant that cold weather starting was
much improved. Under the hood, all the ballyhoo that could be
mustered centred on the increased efficiency and the higher gas
mileage. Leaf springs and shock absorbers were tweaked for a more
comfortable ride.
1934 Ford Tudor Sedan tipped the scales at 1 232 kilos (2,717 pounds). The Deluxe version weighed nine kilos (20 pounds) more. |
Consumers throughout the
Dominion could choose a Ford in any of fourteen different body styles
in 1934. The less expensive models were designated as Standard and
the dressier Fords carried the DeLuxe moniker. The DeLuxe models
featured new swivel-type sun visors “adjustable to any angle,’
dome lights, floor carpets, an ashtray and a cigar lighter.
Upholstery choices were fine Broadcloth or Mohair in the upscale
Fords. Fender colours matched bodies on DeLuxe models and the wheels used
harmonizing colours. Folks were invited to “ride in this new Ford
V-8 for 1934 and see for yourself what it can do. You will find it
the most completely satisfying car you have ever driven—regardless
of price. And the most economical, too.”
The economy improved
somewhat in 1934. The picture was particularly bright in the
agricultural sector where farmers had significant new sales outlets
for grain now that the Americans had lifted their 15-year ban on the
consumption of alcohol with the repeal of the 33rd Amendment.
The 1934 Ford DeLuxe Roadster V-8 weighed in at 1 116 kilos (2,461 pounds) and rode on a 2 844-millimetre (112-inch) wheelbase. |
Sales figures at Ford of
Canada reflected that cautious optimism as they rebounded to 14,442
passenger cars delivered domestically in 1934. A total of nine
Lincolns and 43 British Fords sold, too. Things were beginning to
look a little better in Windsor. Ford of Canada Limited finished the
year in the black. Factories in Windsor and assembly in plants
throughout the Dominion all showed a profit for the first time since
1930. The net profit was a healthy $1,878,112.91 for the year and if
they could have looked into their crystal balls, they would have been
excited to learn that 1935 would be even better.
