| In October, 1908, Henry Ford unveiled what was to become known as 'the people's car'. He had spent two years setting up a place in Piquet Avenue, Detroit, USA, designing and building the Model T. After several years of experimenting with the design, materials to use in construction and types/colours of paint, it was ready for retail. When the first Model T rolled off the production line on 1 October, 1908, it started off a new way of mass-producing carsthat would make motoring affordable to the general public. When full production began, every vehicle came in one colour only: black. By 1918, half of all cars in the USA were Model Ts. Over the 19 years it was produced, the Model T Fordwas practically unchanged in design and appearance, and a total of 15million cars were sold. |
