Car articles about Ford (US) Model A by year
85 years ago, a man had to vacate his desk at Ford who, at the age of 34, had already made it to second vice president of the company. In a memorandum to Henry Ford on January 20, 1926, Ernest C. Kanzler articulated what everyone in management knew, but dared not say in the presence of the stubborn authoritarian car tycoon: production of the Model T had to be discontinued because it was outdated, customers were fleeing in droves, and only a model replacement could turn the tide. The courageous Warner was ousted like other top managers before him who had dared to contradict the boss on fundamental issues. Nevertheless, the Ford A was finally developed and turned out to be a practical and durable successor.
Ford already had good sales figures in England at the beginning of the 1920s. The sale of US cars in Europe was therefore very lucrative. So the decision was made to open another production facility in Germany. Initially, cars were built in Berlin, but from the 1930s onwards, passenger cars were manufactured in Cologne. This article summarizes the beginnings of Ford in Germany with many historical pictures.
For most people, the VW Beetle is the Volkswagen par excellence, in every sense of the word. A car for the people, a people's car. And the Beetle was indeed an above-average success. But before it, Ford's Model T had already passed the 15 million mark, and in modern times the Toyota Corolla, VW Golf and Ford's F-series even managed to reach over 30 million, although they were not the only people's cars to do so. This report looks back at some selected production successes in car history and shows them in 200 pictures. A feast for the eyes!
