100th Anniversary of the Fordson Tractor
มุมมอง 423K7 ปีที่แล้ว
In 1917, Henry Ford and his son Edsel designed and launched the Model F tractor. Hailed as the “Model T of the Soil,” the Fordson Model F was the first lightweight, affordable tractor the world had seen. The labor and food shortage of World War I came to an end because of the Fordson tractor. It became the foundation on which American and European agriculture flourished in a changing world. To ...

มุมมอง 1K9 ปีที่แล้ว
Work to repair the flat, tiled roofs at the Henry Ford Estate - Fair Lane in Dearborn, Mich., is wrapping up this fall (2015). Clara and Henry Ford lived in Fair Lane for 30 years, and a campaign is underway to restore and re-imagine Fair Lane for generations to come. Find out more at www.henryfordestate.org
Never realized Clara & Henry had such an attractive home. Not the imitation of what a bunch of dead Europeans put up hundreds of years before to rival the neighbors' wedding-cake-houses dripping with superfluous rosettes and laurel wreaths.
👍👍
Many of the original photographs were taken by my grandfather , my grandmother knew the house very well, Mrs ford was a kind friend to the family
I ment to say my great grandfather
From what I understand Edsel Ford the second was a real hot head he would get into fights at the board meetings. So they thought they would removed him from the real workings of the company and put him in charge of the charities. Each of Ford's kids and grandkids inherited 500 million each. I think they can afford to take care of those Estates themselves. Without begging for money.
2:44 having trouble finding documentation on Clara Ford and her relationship with the WLAA
I've always been a a Henry Ford love reading everything about
I'd love to live in Fairlane to beware your grandmother and grandfather enjoyed living
Went to Fairlane back in July, a absolute beautiful place RIP Henry and Clara

Ford -Fairlane was a good Car from the Ford Motor Company ! ✌🚘 Edsel Ford l. R i P .
at 3 min mark..... The Ford family is begging for money to fix up a Ford property..? disgraceful .
As a kid in the 50s I played on one stored in my great aunt & uncles barn in Midland MI. My dad told me it was a bad investment. It sat for months waiting for parts if anything broke. Henry was too busy selling new tractors not supporting the one he'd already sold.
I lived in Grosse Pointe Farms and Birmingham for several years I love the Ford family and support them
One of the Fords went to Babson Institute as it was called back in the day in Wellesley Massachusetts that my father was in a few classes of his
I like how this video was put together.
And not one word of good old Henry's antisemitism, his creation of a false narrative about the "Jewish Conspiracy", his union busting endeavors and then there was his racist side. What about that relationship with Hitler? Just a disgraceful beg for money. If he were truly sincere, the family would pool their money and foot the bill themselves. But no, a grifter has to grift.
I wish Ford was Adorable again for the middle class but again car insurance is sales tax and of course having to take your car to a certified mechanic dealer ship
Wait the Ford Motor Company can't foot the bill for this give me a break
my thoughts exactly..... Now we see why the Lions suck so bad.
Thanks Henry! My 1950 8N still going strong to this day.
Does Edsell have arms?
I am looking forward to visiting the estate again once everything is finished. I was last there in 2003.
Made incredible contributions to the prosperity and well being of millions upon millions of people world wide, but sadly would now be considered by many as “White Privileged”.
Henry Ford was actually a leader in integrating his factories and employing African Americans. Say what you will, Henry valued anyone who worked hard.
@@dwitcraft And to many, that would mean nothing, David. History is being re-written…
"only through your support and with benefactors"??? Typical attitude for the filthy rich.... Had the Ford family _kept_ Fair Lane and maintained it as it _should_ have been, this full restoration would not have been necessary. Clearly, the Ford family can afford to pay for the restoration on it's own and _not_ beg the public to help foot the bill....
Isn’t there a Fairlane mall?
Just fantastic 🙏 salute to sir Henry Ford and Clara Ford 👍
This is a great channel 👏🏽
Came here to learn about Ford Tractor. Instead got a lot of woke hot air propaganda about his wife. CLICK BAIT!
God's plan Henry Ford God only knows God's plan Amen
I hope you display his Nazi awards and sash, he was so proud of them. He had the Nazi legion of Honor - Hitler kept Henry's picture in his office. Hitler counted on his financial support when in Prison for the beer hall putch. Ford's Opel company made tanks for Germany during WW2. Ford sued the US for bombing his factory and actually won the suit. Burn in hell Henry Ford.
Support ?? Multi billionaire family ?? Hmm. Strange
One old farmer told me, "Just about every farmer bought a Fordson, but they never bought a second one".
Замечательно! Мой дед работал на этих тракторах, отзывался как о хороших машинах. Привет из России.
I am blessed to own a 1941 Ford 9N. It is an UNBELIEVABLE beautiful piece of art on wheels.
A solisatation for funds? Did old Henry take all that money with him? I didn't see any pockets in that coffin.
I think this is one of the most beautiful historic homes. I'm so glad its being restored and preserved.
me too! Henry Ford and Ford Motor are SO important to America - wouldn't be the same without them.
Saludos desde Uruguay. Tengo 58 años. En Uruguay aprendí a conducir un Fordson Mayor diésel 1954 de 39 HP. Gran experiencia. Hoy Profesor de Maquinaria Agrícola. Me sirvió para tener dominio de conducción. Y maniobras . Una linda experiencia. Interesante comentarios. Saludos.
Would love to meet the ford family
So where you gonna' hang Henry's big ol' swastika?
Wait a minute the old boy was he broke when he died I'm mean Edsel 2 said with your support, as in give me money please to fix up the house. Somebody needs to tell Ed to read James 5.
i LOVE Henry and his automobiles!
Henry first built 3 experimental tractors out of model t frames,put lug wheels,one went to southern michigan,one went to northern michigan,and one went to the u.p.the one from the u.p. is sitting in a tool shed in east central michigan,don't know about the other two.
They have to make tractors again
Saludos desde Uruguay Estoy de acuerdo.
Met my wife there while working a seasonal gig in the Pool Restaurant. Asked her to marry me in the rose garden. 27 years later we still have fond memories of our time in and around the Estate.
Congratulations - many happy years ahead.
Ford Fairlane from what I understand has been owned and used by the University of Michigan in Dearborn for many years . I was in the home many years ago .
Wow Mr. Edsel Ford II you and your family are amazing.
Henry was deeply anti Semitic, a racist and anti- labor rights; its a complex story they need to tell in this house.
my great grandfather worked on Henrys , grandfather clocks,, and then asked Henry if he would hire his son for the assembly line,, witch he did,, that was my grandfather,, worked there till retirement,, his oldest son my uncle,, worked for Henry Ford for 40 years, and retired from the company, my Uncles son worked for Henry for about 30 years,,, My Dad and me have owed many ford products in our life times,,, I have a 69 F-250 camper special, that I dearly love,, I have rebuilt everything on this truck , except for the 4 speed,, still original and doing well,, paint is still factory from 69,, I just got a 1952 Ford 8N tractor,, and loving that so much,, helps with the 40 acres, that I live on,, My Dad knows a lot more about all this stuff and maybe he will add to this .... :)
I would love to win this Mustang I am a huge diehard mustang fan. I have never been able to afford one, raising my family my kids and college and now retired , unfortunately I still can't Afford my dream car but, I would love to win this one God-bless
It is great that so many talented artisans are able to work on the mansion. I'm sure that it will be one of their greatest career accomplishments.
