1969 Ford Taunus

Automobiles

The 26M, introduced in 1969, was the top of the line with a new 2.6 litre engine, bigger brakes, dual headlights, power steering and the most luxurious trim. The engine range was enlarged to two base engines, a V4 and a V6, in six sizes and nine power stages. A Ford 20M RS won the Safari that year. It was named after the Taunus mountain range in Germany and was often a close relative of a British Ford. The Taunus was the family car of Ford Germany, sold under the 12M, 15M, 17M, 20M and 26M names over several generations.
