HENRY FORD

"whether you think you can

or you think you can't,

you're right".

Henry Ford

Henry Ford (1863-1947)

Founder of the Ford Motor Company.

Ford was the first vehicle manufacture to make available affordable mass car ownership to the general population.

The Model T was manufactured between 1908 and 1927 followed by the Model A that in was production for the years 1927 to 1931. The Model 18 in 1932 introduced the flathead V8 engine. Manufactured up to 1953. In its later years the flathead V8 produced a maximum horsepower of 110. The Ford Mustang debut was in 1965.

Greenfield Village was opened in 1933. Located in Dearborn, Michigan.

Henry Ford maintained an interest in auto racing from 1901 to 1913 and began his involvement in the sport as both a constructor and a driver, later employing hired drivers.

The auto manufacturer has a long history of involvement in all forms of motorsport. Multiple millions of dollars in investment world wide.

Like him or loathe him. Henry enabled ordinary people great mobility of freedom with the automobile.

Henry had controversial opinions on many things political. Also unfounded opinions of perceived unnamed figures within world business dominance. These are not the opinions of Traveldriven.
