fun car fact on this day 7-23-1903

[renovation]

Henry Ford delivered a Model A car to his first customer, Dr. Ernst Pfenning, of Chicago, on this day in 1903. But the Model A was still far from Ford's vision—he'd put it together from parts made by other companies. Ford introduced his Model T five years later, and called it a "working man's car"— affordable even to those who worked on his mass-production lines.

...affordable even to those who worked on his mass-production lines.

With the result of union wage demands, the auto workers are one of the few groups that can afford the new cars today.

1903 Ford Model A.

Weird.....there was the first Model A, then the Model T, then the Model A again in the late twenties.

I believe the Model B was in 1932.

Yep. Model B was the first V8. The French thought he had trademarked the term V8 (he hadn't) so they came out with their version called, of course, the 8V. I loves me some car trivia. Just sold my model t Saturday. Miss it already.
