The Ford Model T: The car that motorized America
The Ford Model T, affectionately known as "Tin Lizzie," was produced between 1908 and 1927 and became the first truly affordable car for the middle class. Thanks to Ford's revolutionary assembly line, more than 15 million units were manufactured, forever changing the way the world moved.
This LEGO replica captures the elegance and simplicity of the early 1910s Model T, with its characteristic black bodywork, gold details, and unmistakable tall spoked wheels.

This model reproduces with astonishing fidelity the distinctive features of the Ford Model T from that era:
- Glossy black bodywork with elegant finishes
- Gold details on radiator, headlights, and accessories
- Foldable fabric roof that can be opened and closed
- Foldable split windshield characteristic of the period
- Tall spoked wheels with narrow white rubber tires
- Single door located on the passenger side (as in early models)
- Curved fenders typical of early 20th-century design
Authentic mechanical functions and interactive details
This set goes far beyond being a static replica. It incorporates multiple interactive functions that recreate the experience of the authentic Ford Model T:

The interior cabin is equally detailed, with a functional steering system, period seats, and the characteristic Model T controls. The driver's seat can be lifted to access the fuel tank, just like in the original vehicle.
Imposing dimensions for maximum realism
Once built, the Ford Model T reaches impressive dimensions of approximately 20 cm in height, 29 cm in length, and 13 cm in width. These proportions perfectly capture the tall, elegant silhouette of the authentic early 20th-century automobile.
