Model T, 1920s

Got to visit the Greenfield Village Holiday Festival at the Henry Ford Museum tonight, which was end to end lovely, but a definite highlight was getting a tour in a real Model T!

[ID: two photos, the first showing the loading area where a Ford Model T car is pulling up to give me a ride in style. Second image is taken from inside the Model T in the front seat, which is where I sat and grinned like a dork the whole time we were driven around. The front hood and headlamps of the car are visible beneath the windscreen.]

When you have a fever your body output enough energy to power an early model T car engine.

On this day, August 12 in 1908 the first Model T completed pre-production at Ford's Piquette Avenue Plant in Detroit, Michigan.

“I will build a car for the great multitude,” Henry Ford once said. “It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for the individual to run and care for. It will be constructed of the best materials, by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs that modern engineering can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man making a good salary will be unable to own one and enjoy with his family the blessing of hours of pleasure in God’s great open spaces.”

The automobile revolution for the working class began.
