What would we do without U-Tube?

Very very good info I am picking up a 28 model a coupe this weekend I will be sure to investigate the VIN numbers thank you for taking the time to make this video

They must have used eco-paint back then, no need for a mask or goggles while spraying :)

Where’s all the lame comments about safety equipment like is said on the foreign plant workers? Come on, there has to be at least 1 karen out there

That is so interesting to me. Did I see correctly that the dash instrument panel was installed without the speedometer, ammeter, gas gauge and dash light?

Henry Ford was a Nazi sympathizer. So was Charles Lindbergh he knew Hitler was going to win.

As I’m watching this video. I’m amazed at the Men that designed all the equipment used to manufacture automobiles. In the very early 1900’s. The amount of time spent figuring everything out. The Draftsmen that took the ideas and drew out everything for every single part that went into the manufacturing of automobiles. All the parts for the iron workers that smelted the iron ore. Pouring the cast iron into the sand molds. Parts of the molten iron converted to steel. By shooting oxygen through a water lined copper pipe placed directly into the molten iron. Removing most of the carbon. Then pouring the steel into billets. The billets then soaked in pits to reach the optimal temperature to roll the billets into sheet metal, round stock or whatever was called for. Turning crude wavy glass into clear flat glass by polishing the glass. Using billets of steel to turn into body parts,frames,rivets,nuts and bolts. To the Men making the molds that were used to make sand castings.then pouring molten iron or steel into the sand cast molds. To the Men that used all the machinery to manufacture automobiles. Whenever the body of an automobile was changed,the men that made the molds to press the sheet metal into body panels. This was true American innovation that lead the USA into a world power.

the video shows the southern route from New Orleans to Atlanta, however, it made it to Fairhope Alabama (eastern shore of Mobile Bay) as I have photo of it in front of Gaston Motor Company in downtown Fairhope, with my grandfather, who was mayor, at the wheel with what appears the whole town of Fairhope around it.

nice video, but those ai generated sounds are weird 😅

August 1929 in the good ol' USA!

It's good to see that nothing has changed.

Great information 👍

OLDER VIDEO, just found your channel, I have watched alot of your videos, this is one of my favorites, all the work and dedication to perfection these workers have in making a Quality product, it shows that took pride in their work, great video on the OLD MODEL A FORD, I've owned MODEL A's for over 50 years, have a 31 TUDOR now, THANKS for sharing the History of the MODEL A Ford, SUBSCRIBED.

Friend of mine had an A R roadster that had the louvers on tbe hood at an angle.

My AR tudor had so many parts that didnt interchange with later 28-29. Brake drums, hubs, wheels, front fenders, generator, starter, no separate e-brake system, carburator with twin venturies, fender lamps, bumpers, T style lug nuts, it goes on and on. Sold it 90% restored to a guy in Toledo 50 years ago.

The windshield glare at night is annoying and somewhat unsafe. Similar to the current "blinding" lights of modern cars that frequently blind oncoming drivers. Frequently because those other drivers are "unconscious" about having their "high-beams" on while driving towards other drivers. ;o( I personally like the look of the straight windshield with the external visor better than the slant "roofline" treatment however. The "notch" that appears at the roofline of the slant doesn't look so good to my eye. ;o( FWIW of course !!!

Wonder where that #1 Engine is today…

I enjoyed this. Where do you get the videos/ information?

This was the 2nd version of the model A. The first model A would've been made (not on a moving assembly line) in the summer of 1903.

Then there's the 1903/04 model A that has a version called the AC because it has a the engine & radiator used in the Model C.

Muy bueno!

The machines and tooling is what amazes me

It's truly "fascinating" to watch these old "manufacturing" videos !!! Many might/would say these jobs were dull, boring, monotonous, and even degrading but they were "living wage" jobs in their time and employed thousands. Thanks for putting these up !! I watch them routinely and really LOVE the music as well !! The Rouge plant would really have been something to see !! They still have public "tours" but only show how they assemble a "pickup" or ??? Nothing like what the facility was like in its "heyday" !! Love that image in one of your videos of that scoop that transfers the iron ore and moves 16 tons of product with each "bite" !!! Deceptive in the video, that scoop must have been at least the size of a 10 yard "dump truck" !!! Henry wanted to be as "self sufficient" as was humanly possible as was evidenced by the size and scale of the Rouge facility and his ability to generate his own wood, glass, steel, rubber, fabric, electricity, etc. Today, this concept is entirely reversed as the manufacturers go to great lengths to "sub-contract" as much as possible in order to employ as few as possible. This concept is commonly known and applauded as "Progress" and "highly efficient" !!!

I have parts made by these guys. Very amazing

What happened to Henry Ford's motto, He wants everyone to afford his cars ? Instead of now get as much as you can mentally today

Beautiful concept' but ... the oxygen levels' changed .. 342,425,647 folks broke .. 745,821,958pieces of equipment standing still .. .. NOT A GOOD BUSINESS MODEL FOR MODERN TIME'S Upper Canada KJV* Amen 🌳🍓the strawberry tree, Niagara Falls Ontario

Ugly, and frightening. It's like a big old, luxury car, but with wings. Thank goodness Ford opted out, of the automobile industry👍!!! Your write-up reads that, 200 Ford Tri-Motors were manufactured. I thought that number would be, substantially higher. Your write-up states: 'We reserve the right, to moderate comments'. You really mean; delete😒………

25:13 where is most of that cars body?

Es increíble que los operarios en la fundición no tuvieran protección respiratoria ! It is incredible that the workers in the foundry did not have respiratory protection!

Wish there were more details on Ford's safety glass (sandwich glass?), but interesting video, though.

The cars being brought in are pretty new actually considering it is 1928.

Amazing video thank you for making this. Love how they cut the glass by hand. Lot of work to make glass.

No hands in pockets at Ford. They would be sewn up.

Momentification ? 00:15

It was Ford wiere and a skate bord bearing NOW ! ITS COBALT AND ACID W/ COAL AND NATURAL GAS TO MAKE AN ELECTRIC MOTOR VEHICLE WITH BATTERIES 😢

Its no wonder we had to get OSHA ! danger was an every day event .

No OSHA back then... God help them as far as safety.

Great video!

Amazing wish had set the dies

Now i know why the city of rouge south of Detroit is called rouge.

Filmed without the use of a single camera drone . . .

Having been a Model A enthusiast for many years, I think it's hilarious when I come across sellers stating "matching numbers car". I ask them did they find the number on the frame. They give me a dumb look and say the numbers match the title. Doesn't mean anything other than it could have been re-registered with a new title and number which isn't that hard to do.

Thank you for posting. Really interesting.👍

Wow

Thanks for bringning this to us!

Part of the reason that the cord of the wing is so thick is for the aircraft to have a real low stall speed ( the speed where the aircraft drops out of the sky. The reason is that Horsepower was low for the size of aircraft and the weight that it could carry. So the stall speed is probably 30 or 35 mph and the cruise speed is probably 90 mph. But with such a thick wing, it's easy to fly.

Besides an owners manual, i also have a seat out of the first California flight, and my grandfather Russell William Bill Hull also gave one of the seats to his older brother Cliff Hull in Port Huron, Michigan. When i last saw, it was in better shape than mine. I have a picture of my mom sitting in the chair when she was three in about 1936.

I believe that my grandfather worked there in 1923 as an assistant superintendent. I have an owners manual for one. And some pictures of one with pontoons and with my grandfather being lowered into the Great Lake.
