Henry Ford and eleven business associates invested $28,000.00 to launch Ford Motor Company in 1903. In 1906 Henry purchased the controlling interest in the company and launched his vision for Ford Motor Company.
The Model T or “Tin Lizzy” was produced from 1908 to 1927. More than 15 million were sold during the production run. The Model T was the longest run of any single model other than the VW Beatle.
“As we wrap up another season for the museum, we are excited to bring our guests an opportunity to come see us and preview a few of the new displays launching in 2013.” commented Craig Johnson, Executive Director.
