CAR COMPANY TOOK FIRST ORDER IN 1903

On July 15, 1903, the newly formed Ford Motor Company took its
first order from Chicago dentist Ernst Pfenning: an $850 two-
cylinder Model A automobile with a tonneau (or backseat). The
car, produced at Ford’s plant on Mack Street (now Mack Avenue)
in Detroit, was delivered to Dr. Pfenning just over a week later.
