Early Ford cars in Trinidad.

Ford motor cars were first imported into Trinidad in 1910 by the firm J N Harriman. By 1920 the franchise changed hands and Charles Mc Enearney and Co. became the exclusive dealer. Today the Ansa Mc Al conglomerate continues to bring Ford vehicles including the Ford Ranger and  Ford Focus. Interestingly this showroom remains at Coffee Street San Fernando.The photo below shows the showroom in 1935!
