2008 Ford Model T Concept by Designer David Beasley

The Ford Model T, one of the most important vehicles in automotive history will celebrate its 100th anniversary next year. With this in mind, David Beasley, an industrial designer with a Master in Design from Coventry University and a Master in Art from the Royal College of Art, created a new interpretation of the “Tin Lizzie”. According to David, the 2008 Model T is inspired by modern architecture and proposed in different body variants (2+2 'dickie' coupe, a 2-seater pick-up and a more versatile and practical 4-seater wagon). -Continued after the jump

"2008 bears a special date for Ford - the 100th birthday of the Model T. For this reason, I believe that the perfect time to replace the Ka or Fiesta and give the customer an affordable 'halo' product is next year”, said David. I have designed this around contemporary architecture and graphic influences with the intention of creating a fresh yet heritage inspired design."
