More than' 125,000 autrnabiles will
Pc produced in the new $12,000,000
plant' of the Ford' Motor Company
'of Canada, Limited, at Ford, during
the year of 1924, according to an an-
nouncement made by officials of that
Company. This production figure
equals about 410 cars for every
working day of the year. Therefore
approximately 50 complete automo-
biles will be produced every hour of
the eight hour working clay. Nearly
a car •a minnte—a marvellous pro-
cedare.
One year ago the average car out-
put was approximately 250 cars per
day so the production capacity of the
great Ford plant has practically
doubled in less than one year. The
new 15 acre machine shop- all under
one roof, has made this production
record possible, it was stated.
The insistent .demand tot Ford
cars throughout Canada and the
other British Dominions has brought
about the largest expansion program
ever nadertaken by an automobile
Company outside the United States.
The first car to be Produced an the
recently completed machine shop.
was a new style Ford Coupe, motor
No. 451,306, ;and was driven from
the new factory complete on Decem-
ber 3rd. Since that time a steady
Stream of Ford automobiles' includ-
ing the attractive new model Tudor,
Itas been leaving the plant.
