"Henry's Lady" may have first put America on wheels nearly 100 years ago, but Ford's claim to fame remains as exciting to Model T fans and car collectors in general as the day the first one rolled off the line, changing U.S. society forever. This passion for performance is celebrated in the 300 superb colour photos and historic black-and-white images, production data and technical specifications, inspiring historical facts, and collector pricing, contained in this beautiful book. The classic design, and rich photography of this reference offers readers and collectors a unique and useful commemorative of the 100-year anniversary of the car that changed the world, and helped heal the nation.
