Without a doubt, the Ford Model T revolutionized the automobile industry worldwide, opening up access to this mode of transportation for a large portion of the American population. Over time, many variants emerged to meet the transportation needs that were gradually being identified, including the need to carry more people comfortably, which is why, in 1911, five-seat convertible passenger car bodies appeared. The ICM brand reproduced this variant of the Model T, with a
highly detailed engine and chassis , and
pre-molded white tires, just as they were offered at the time.
Additional details for the
Ford Model T Touring car scale model kit:
In October 1908 the Ford T starts a new era in automobile production, and with it Ford manages to create the "universal car". A vehicle with which Ford tries to meet its own quality demands, and where the priorities for the T model are reliability and functionality, while luxury is conspicuous by its absence. The bodies of the first years are made of wood. Later, the structure is covered with aluminum plates, and later with steel. For this reason the vehicle is popularly known as Tin Lizzy.
A large part of the parts are manufactured in the early years at the facilities of suppliers, including the Dodge brothers, with Ford acting more as an assembly plant than a production one. Years later, Ford also breaks new ground in production methods. The first step is the introduction of the "conveyor chain" in the manufacture of parts. Subsequently, other manufacturing processes are integrated and, finally, the manufacture of parts and the final assembly are unified in a homogeneous system.
What is known as the "assembly line" was born, allowing Ford to enter the mass production of automobiles.
