Ford Model N

Product Details

Product Description

The Ford Model N is a vintage automobile that was first introduced by the Ford Motor Company in 1906. It is a compact and lightweight vehicle that was designed primarily for use in the rural areas of America, and it quickly became popular among farmers and rural households due to its affordability and reliability. The Model N features a 2-cylinder engine that produces 8 horsepower, which is capable of reaching a top speed of 35 miles per hour. It has a simple and durable platform with a hand-cranked starting mechanism, and a 2-speed planetary transmission. The vehicle is equipped with a tiller steering mechanism that operates the front wheels and has no brakes - the driver must rely on a low gear and the handbrake to slow down. The exterior of the Model N is simple and practical, featuring four wooden spoke wheels, a high carriage, and an open-top. The interior is basic with two seats and a dashboard that displays the gas and oil levels as well as the speed. The Model N was produced between 1906 and 1908, during which about 7,000 units were manufactured. It is a significant and influential vehicle in the history of automobiles, as it was Ford's first car to be mass-produced and sold at an affordable price, setting the standard for modern vehicle production. Today, the Ford Model N is a highly sought-after collector's item, with many examples on display in museums and private collections worldwide.
