Cars over the years

    First Car Motel-Tee;  Karl Benz
    The success of [his] company gave Benz the opportunity to indulge in his old passion of designing a horseless carriage. Based on his experience with, and fondness for, bicycles, he used similar technology when he created an automobile. Karl Benz finished his creation in 1885 and named it the Benz Patent Motorwagen.

  • Henry Ford; First car

    Henry Ford; First car
    The earliest cars were hand built, one by one, and very expensive. The peculiar machines were seen as toys for the rich.[3] In the 1890s, the "horseless carriage" was a relatively new idea, with no one having a fixed, universal idea of what a car should look like or how it should work.

  • Henry Ford; Race car

    Henry Ford; Race car
    This is Henry Ford's first race car. After his first auto company failed, Ford turned to racing to restore his reputation. He raced "Sweepstakes" against Alexander Winton on October 10, 1901, and, to everyone's surprise, the novice Ford beat the established Winton. The victory and resulting publicity encouraged financiers to back Ford's second firm. [https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/199258/]

    Henry Ford; First Affordable Car
    The Ford Model T is an automobile that was produced by Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908, to May 26, 1927.[6][7] It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's efficient fabrication, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting.

  • Ford Station Wagon

    Ford Station Wagon
    The 1937 Ford featured a more rounded look with fine horizontal bars in the convex front and hood-side grilles. The front grille was V-shaped, rather than following the fenders into a pentagon shape, as on the 1936 model. Faired-in headlights were a major modernization found on both the Standard and DeLuxe trim versions, though much of the rest of the design was shared between Ford's two lines.

  • Ford Chrysler

    Ford Chrysler
    In the 1980s, as GM and Chrysler moved towards smaller cars, and competition from imports increased, Ford's sales began to suffer. Facing financial troubles and potential bankruptcy, Ford began moving towards more aerodynamic, front-wheel drive cars in the mid 80s. The introduction of vehicles like the revolutionary Taurus and the Aerostar minivan revitalized Ford's sales and pushed them back to the top of America's auto industry.
