The first vehicle in the world to be built on an assembly line, 15 million Model Ts were produced (a figure only exceeded by the Volkswagen Beetle). Before the appearance of the Model T, motor vehicles were a luxury product for the privileged few. They aroused envy, and considerable opposition because they frightened horses with their noise, caused clouds of dust, etc. Most people were against them and wanted to ban them.
But when the first Model T rolled off the Ford assembly line on October 1, 1908, with a retail price of just 0.00, the modern age of motoring really began. Henry Ford was convinced he had produced a good car at a low price ever since making his first vehicle in 1896. Choose a Ford T for your celebration and experience a legendary motor car.
