Description
Model T Ford. The horseless carraige. The riding machine that changed the world. Henry Ford. The birth of man's love affair with the automobile. The car that established a mass market for automobiles, the Model T, was introduced on October 1, 1908. The first Model T had a 20 horsepower, four-cylinder engine, reached a top speed of 45 miles per hour, got about 13 to 21 miles per gallon of gasoline and weighed 1,200 pounds. It was the ninth of Henry Ford 's production cars. More than 15,000,000 Model T's were built and sold. The Model T was the first low-priced, mass- produced car with standard interchangeable parts. The Model T popularized the left-side steering column. The engine design, single block with a removable cylinder head, became the industry standard. Henry Ford's initiation of mass production of vehicles on the moving assembly line led to lower car prices and the $5 workday.
