Ford "Model T", also known as "Tin Lizzie", is a car, produced by the Ford Motor Company in 1908-1927. It was the world's first million-volume car. Henry Ford is considered by many to have "put America on wheels" by making the new car relatively affordable for the middle class American. This became a reality by introducing innovations into the production process: the use of a conveyor belt, instead of individual manual assembly, slightly without sacrificing quality, simplifying the car's structure, which in turn reduced the cost and price. The first copy of the "Model T" was produced on September 27, 1908 at the "Pickett" factory in Detroit, Michigan. "Fords" have been assembled in England since 1911 and in Germany since 1926. In 1913 a conveyor belt started operating at the Detroit factory. Car prices fell. The circle of buyers of reliable, solid cars has increased even more. The "Ford T" base produced coupe and sports "Speedster", racing cars and extended touring coaches, trucks, delivery vans and even tractors. By 1927, more than 15 million cars of this brand were produced. This record was broken only by Volkswagen "Kafer" in 1972. By the way, some number of these cars were also used in Lithuania during the interwar period. To make it, only the number plates need to be changed, because the "Ford T" "could be any color, only that color should be black" - so said Henry Ford himself.
A well-designed and richly detailed model for modelers of all experience, beginners only (this cannot be one of the first models made by modelers of this experience) and modelers with little experience are recommended to work under the supervision of a more experienced colleague. Perfectly detailed transmission, engine compartment, all car equipment. Double-side printing or "metallic" bronze paint printing has been used, where appropriate. Excellent graphic and semi-minimalist textual instructions, there is a stock of colors.
