Henry's
Lady: An Illustrated History of the Model A Ford - The "New
Ford" was introduced in December of 1927. With a rare eye
for design, the very appearance of the car suggested character.
It implied integrity and promised performance. Incorporating a
radically different sliding gear transmission. shock absorbers,
twice the horsepower of the earlier Model T, and only a slightly
increased price, loyal Ford owners without hesitation "laid
it on the line" and acquired a new Ford. Hours after driving
the car for the first time, most were convinced that here at last
was an automobile that not only "belonged", but which
actually led the way into the future. No longer the butt of comics'
humor, the new Ford had joined the country club set and in the
words of a song written by Walter O'Keefe and shortly to become
immensely popular...... "Henry Made a Lady Out of Lizzie".
