Photographer’s Note

TAF 652 Medellín
-------------------
I do not know a lot of cars and a lot less of antique cars, but today I wanted to share a picture of this 1953 Ford truck, which is in perfect conditions. I note, is not for sale !!! :)

Upon making, I was pleased to observe how the red colour contrasted sharply with the elements silver; so I decided to implement Blur gaussiano around the backbone, to avoid areas annoying or distracting.

A little bit of history concerning its manufacturer:
-----------------------------------------------------
The Ford Motor Company (often simply called Ford and Ford's) is a multinational company American car builder based in Dearborn, Michigan, USA. It was founded in June 16, 1903 by Henry Ford in Detroit, Michigan.

Ford began working for the first time in 1903 with US $ 28,000 from 11 investors. In its early years, Ford produced a few Alphabet Cars per day at its factory located on Mack Avenue in Detroit, Michigan.

Groups of two or three men worked with each car using components manufactured in other companies. Henry Ford was 40 years old when he founded the Ford Motor Company, which continue to be one of the largest and most profitable companies in the world today, as well as being one of the few companies that survived the Great Depression of the 30's.

In 1908, the Company Ford launched the Model T Ford, whose first model was built at the Piquette Plant Manufacturing. The company moved production facilities to the Highland Park Plant (larger than the previous one) to meet the demand of the new model T. Towards 1913, the company had developed all the basic techniques of production line and mass production.

Ford created the first production line of mobile world this year, which reduced the assembly time of chassis 12 and a half hours to 2 hours and 40 minutes.

The first model designed and carried out for Europe was the Ford 8 AND HP.
