No, you do not normally capitalize adjectives.
In your sample, you would capitalize "Ford," as it is a proper name.
So, you write:
"I have a green Ford."

It all depends as to whether or not the color is an adjective or a noun:
My green Crestliner Ford.
The Red sea.
The White Mountains.
The blue Pacific.
The 'Gold Coast' of Africa.
The Green Mountains of Vermont.
The Green Mountain Boys captured
Fort Ticonderoga.

Colors are capitalized only when they start a sentence or if the color mentions a specific place (Red Sea, etc). Therefore, "Green Fords are my favorite cars," or "I have a green Ford."

Not in English.
You capitalize names. Green is not a name in this case. Ford is a name. So it's "I have a green Ford." But "Mr Green has a Ford too."

No, it's mot capitalized unless it's a proper noun, such as when speaking of the band Green Day.

No you don't need to capitilize a color
