Cars in the 1920's

Cars in the 1920's are a lot different from then to now. If you would have looked at a normal car from then to a normal car now the you would see that their is a really big difference. Throughout the 1920's, automobiles had become a huge thing. Cars back then started to become in demand, so the Ford and other companies had to start pushing out their assembly lines. One of the cars that were pretty popular back then was the Model T. The reason the car started to become so popular is because each year the price would start to drop. So that would be the car you would probably see driving around back then. The 1923 GM model was pretty popular back the as well. This model sold over 800 thousand vehicles in this time, and they also made over 80 billion dollars.Once Ford found out that the 1923 GM model was taking in so much money, they had to try and find out how to reduce the cost, so that's when they found out how to put interchangeable parts on their cars. When the cars were being built they only had certain workers do certain things, because they only trained them for it. By 1921, the Model T was only 310 dollars. There were over 40 companies making cars by 1929. You would think that in the 1920's you could go and get any colour of car you would want like now, but a fact is that most of the cars back then were painted mostly in darker colour's.
