	Ford Model K - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ford Model K was an upscale automobile produced by the Ford Motor Company.
		The model K was aimed at the top end of the market and featured an inline-6 (the only Ford six until 1941) giving 40 hp (30 kW).
		The Model K was a failure, something that can be attributed to both the high price (between $2500 and $3000) and poor quality.

	Ford Model T - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For some reason, the follow-up was the Ford Model A and not the Model U. In the international poll for the award of the world's most influential car of the twentieth century the Ford Model T came first.
		The Model T had a unique magneto system which produced only a low voltage which had to be stepped up by a coil; in order to assure easier starting, however, a self-contained dry cell powered system could be manually switched in, then back to magneto for high speed operation.
		Model T suspension employed a transversely mounted semi-elliptical spring for each of the front and rear axles, which were "live," i.e., not an independent suspension.

	Ford_Model_T
		The Model T (colloquially known as the Tin Lizzie and the Flivver) was an automobile produced by Henry Ford's Ford Motor Company from 1908 through 1927.
		Ford's Piquette plant could not keep up with demand for the Model T and only 11 cars were built there during the first full month of production.
		Many steel Model T parts are still manufactured today, and even fibreglass replicas of their distinctive bodies, which are popular for T-bucket style hot rods (as immortalized in the Jan and Dean surf music song, "Bucket T", which was later recorded by The Who).

		Ford was born on a prosperous farm in Springwells Township (now in the city of Dearborn, Michigan) owned by his parents, William Ford (1826-1905) and Mary Litogot (c1839-1876), immigrants from County Cork, Ireland.
		Henry Ford was a pioneer of "welfare capitalism" designed to improve the lot of his workers and especially to reduce the heavy turnover that had many departments hiring 300 men a year to fill 100 slots.
		In 1913, Ford attempted to enter a reworked Model T in the Indianapolis 500, but was told rules required the addition of another 1,000 pounds (450 kg) to the car before it could qualify.

	CanadianDriver: Ford Model T
		During the Model T era Ford defeated the monopolistic Selden patent (1911), introduced the moving automobile assembly line (1913), and instituted the $5 per day wage (1914).
		As the models marched through the alphabet, many of the cars had bigger engines and longer wheelbases; by 1906 the Model K was an expensive ($2,500) six-cylinder automobile.
		Steering was another novel idea on the Model T. Instead of mounting a conventional gearbox at the bottom of the steering column, Henry fitted a small planetary gearset under the steering wheel.

	Early Ford - models from the years 1903 - 1908; page 3
		The Model F was again a development of the original Model A and its younger Model C brother.
		Also the fact that Ford had mainly concentrated on affordable cars since the start in 1903 and therefore had neglected to create a appealing image for its cars, wouldn't have helped matters (something that remained a problem until the Lincoln marque was acquired in 1922).
		Still the Model K holds an important place in Ford history: it is believed to be the reason that Ford didn't produce 6-cylinder engined cars again until 1941 and it formed the catalyst in the process of Ford becoming a mass producer of cheap cars.

		Ford had proved his car was durable and fast - it had averaged almost 45 mph - and he had established his name as a force to be reckoned with in automobile manufacture.
		In the postwar boom years in America the Model T was the obvious choice for young mechanically minded men with a few dollars to spend, and it was the ingenuity of such backyard mechanics and the adaptability of the Tin Lizzie that fuelled the growth of racing.
		Ford's dominance in these formulae was reinforced with the introduction in 1967 of a new single-seater 'training formula'.

	Ford's first luxury car - Drive.com.au
		Despite introducing the popular, small four-cylinder Model N runabout at a sharp $US500, Henry Ford was under pressure from his fellow directors and backers, who thought he was not matching some of his competitors at the luxury end of the market.
		As a consequence, the large six-cylinder Ford Model K was shown for the first time at the New York Motor Show of January 1906, with a hefty price tag of $US2800.
		The fully restored 1906 Ford Model K recently participated in its maiden rally from Brisbane to Sydney and, despite some early timing problems, which caused the car to overheat badly and nearly catch fire, it otherwise performed without fault.
