Henry Ford & ford co

"Model T" and major success

One of the main reasons behind the success of "Model T" and cars is due. to the assembly lines that allowerd the material to be built faster, stronger, smother, and cheaper. (with a few glitches fixed by other inventors, of course). nonetheless, Henry Ford's idea became the epitome of the american spirit.

The seed of Ford

Not long after, he created his first engine motor and even tested it out in his kitchen sink! Ford became an engineer in the Edison Illuminating Company, and after a while started experimenting with gasoline engines. After some tests he created the Ford Quadricycle. Cute name! His idol was Edison, and in 1896 he was able to meet him.

Detroit and Ford co.

Ford then sounded the Detroit Automobile Company, which failed. He then formed the Henry Ford Company. His third company was the Ford Motor Company. This was the final biggie. From here-most of you already know. And that was a small blast from the past on Henry Ford’s way to success!

Early Life

Cars. We are lucky to have them, and who do we have to thank? None other than Henry Ford. The man grew up on a farm, but that didn’t stop him from dreaming big. He was born July 30th in 1863 in Michigan. He was the oldest of five, and funny he is to become a leader. He was always taking things apart and putting them back together. This was the start of his career.
