Ford's Extreme Performance Cars Side by Side

[KJRGT]

Went to a small Cars and Coffee this morning.
Young fellow in this 1927 Ford rolled in and parked next to me.
I thought it was a great photo op to have two dramatically different Fords side by side.
PS.. He said at the peak of production, Ford finished a car off the assembly line every 90 seconds!! Can that be true??? :eek

How about 1 every 24 seconds!!

​

By 1913, the Model T's fifth full production year, an evolving assembly-line process had reduced the time for building an individual motorcar from 12 hours to an hour and a half. By 1927, the Model T's last year, Ford was cranking them out at a rate of one every 24 seconds.

Will do Ralphie.
He said in theory it tops out at 45 mph, but he does not get past 35 mph.
Too afraid the cotton band brake system will take too long to slow her down...:eek
