I have never seen this video before. Very interesting! Silent Movie.

That was good, a little back to front, finishing the car first, but still good.
Hello Mike
Thanks for the link to that footage
Wouldn't it be fantastic if someone who had the time, knowledge and contacts to put all the available footage of the Ford Factories and Model T's all together one one DVD in order of production. It would be very well accepted by most of us T people i'm sure!!

Neat stuff.
Is that footage available? The one I just looked at is not clear, and it is difficult to observe any detail. However if the original film was used, perhaps it would be clearer. I could look at that over and over again. Note, they are using the square cutout on the generator, so it has already been moved off the firewall, so it must be a mid 1919 assembly line.
These would also be the first starters installed on cars. Shows pretty good detail of starter installation.
