The New Ford --- Model A Introductory Film --- On DVD
Produced by Ford Educational Laboratories in late 1927, this film introduced the Model "A" to the world.
You'll see the car being assembled from beginning to end with all major components prominently featured, including cutaway shots of the motor, transmission and rear axle. Although the Ford assembly line is featured, the real star of this film is the Model "A" and the showcase of AR features displayed in amazing technical detail.
As the car nears completion you'll see Henry Ford stamping the first engine. The film concludes with a test drive that really demonstrates its reliability. You'll see "The New Ford" plow through running board deep snow in the Allegheny Mountains, breeze through a rigorous torture track and climb the steepest hill in Pittsburgh without missing a step.
Transferred to DVD from a rare 16mm film, this authentic Ford produced film is presented here complete and unedited, so today's audiences can view it exactly the way Ford intended. However, because this is a silent film (with original Ford titles) we have added background music. Running time 25 minutes.
