The ten-millionth Ford Model T left the factory on June 4, 1924. This June, it started its latest trek of traveling across the country.
STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo. — A historic figure will take a breather in Steamboat Springs on Wednesday amid a cross-country trip.
That figure? The ten-millionth Ford Model T, the world’s first mass-market automobile.
The vehicle will make a stop at Steamboat Motors at 2310 Lincoln Avenue Suite A between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. Wednesday, though the timing may change based on how well the car does in the thin air and high terrain, AAA said. Click here for its route from Wyoming to Steamboat Springs.
The Museum of American Speed is leading the trip, which is sponsored by AAA. Museum staff and volunteers are driving the vehicle and a trailer is following the car when needed.
