The Model T touring was developed after the initial Models A, B, C, F, K, N, R, and S had been developed. It was meant
to improve on previous versions and it did so in many ways. Henry Ford wanted to produce a car for the masses. He is
credited with assembly line production, and this and many other cost-saving means helped keep driving the price lower
for Model T cars.
The 1913 Model T on display is black with white tires. It has been restored and sits on a starndard 100 inches
wheelbase. Tire size is 30 x 3 inches three inches in the front and 30 x 3 1/2 inches in the rear. It is an example
of one of the "Brass T's" produced between 1908 and 1916. The original price was $600.
