Description
When Henry Ford rolled his first Model T off the assembly line in 1908, the world changed forever. We were “on wheels” and there was no looking back. Since that monumental year there have been certain cars that have become legendary: cars that have captured our imagination (Jaguar E-type) or the spirit of an age (the Volkswagen Beetle). They are cars that have gone from the battlefield to our main street (Jeep) or have been symbols of Americana for decades (Ford Mustang). In short, these are the cars that have shaped an industry and the world.
