File:1924-1925 Ford Model T T4 Tourer (12703173263).jpg

(Although the source name labels this as a 1926 car, the styling shows it's actually a 1924-1925 model, as indicated by his own "T4" nomenclature.) The Model T Ford was built from 1908-1927. The Ford Motor Company was established in 1903, a few models were built before the Model T, but the T was the first mass produced car. Henry Ford wanted to keep the price low as possible so every middle class American could afford one, so to increase efficiency, he was the first to use assembly line production. Ford made use of the knock-down kit concept, so almost from the beginning, the Model T was built in other countries as well as the US, such as England and Australia. In Australia Ford cars were supplied by Ford Canada to avoid extra import duties imposed on non-Empire produced goods. They were originally shipped virtually complete, but as the number of local body building operations grew motor cars were increasingly delivered as CKD form.
