Artifact Overview

The Ford Model T (peeking out from behind the back porch) quickly became a common sight on American farms. It was the first automobile big enough, good enough, and cheap enough for most families, and versatile enough and dependable enough for daily farm life. Farmers could convert Model Ts into tractors or use their rear axles to power agricultural machinery.
