Henry Ford's second car

 

Sidney Olson, Young Henry Ford, A picture history of the first 40 years. Wayne State University, 1963


After building and driving his first prototype, the Quadricycle, Henry Ford started working on the second car. Design and construction of the car began in late 1896. a bit more than a year later it had morphed into the car shown below. Henry Ford was an experimenter, no sooner than something was built than he modified it, always chopping and changing things, anytime anyone had an idea, he would try it out. Progress was slow, but the design was continually improving.
