    Old Timer "T"

    In 1908 The Ford Model "T" revolutionized the entire auto industry by mass producing a car for the middle class working man. The price of a 1908 Ford Model "T" was $850.00. As improvements were made on the assembly line to make them quicker, the price dropped to $250 by 1925.

      Ford sure payed his dues with 2 failed attempts to start an auto company and many "letters" till he got it more than right with the Model T.

      He not only changed the way we travel but our society as a whole they way we live and work that still to this day can be felt.

      Also lets not forget the $5 a day wage that turned his 380% over turn employee rate down to like 20-30%.
