The Ford OSI 20M TS debuted on the 36th Geneva Salon in March 1966. The idea of a luxurious coupe based on the running gear of the Ford 20M TS was hatched in January 1965 and in June the same year a prototype was already being tested in the Turin-Ivrea highway. The spyder version of the Ford OSI 20m TS, a 200mm shortened platform was presented in the 1967 Turin show and was the last appearence of an OSI in such events.
The OSI (Officina Stampaggio Industriale SpA) 20M Coupé was based on Ford of Germany’s Taunus and featured bodywork designed by Sergio Sartorelli at Ghia. Around 2,000 of the Ford 2.0 and 2.3 litre V6-powered coupés were built between 1966 and the end of 1967 when OSI ceased operations.
