The Model T was a very important car in American history. It was launched on October 1st 1908, by Henry Ford, who had pledged that he would build a car that was cheap enough for anyone with a reasonable salary to buy.
Henry Ford kept his promise, and the Model T was mostly made out of wooden parts, and had a 4 cylinder engine. It was produced by the Ford Motor Company from 1909 through 1927. Mass production kept the price reasonable and sales zoomed. The car was so popular that the Ford Motor Company sold over 15,007,003 Model Ts. On May 26th 1927, Ford and his son Edsel drove the 15 millionth Model T Ford out of their factory, marking the famous automobile’s official last day of production.
