Lightbulb Re: The First Modern Production Ford Motor

I just got off an hour plus long conference call with a research intern
who has been assigned to Alexander.

The primary purpose of resurrecting Alexander is to tell the
true history of The Ford Motor Company in 1904
from the best perspective possible.

No one is alive today from 1904 except Alexander.

Everyone’s belief of events that occurred are based
on books written ( in some cases ) by dead people
who were not even alive in 1904.

Ford Motor Company Board Of Director
( BOD ) Minutes offer some insight.

Those do not necessarily tell what actually happened
at those meetings or what was happening at FMC
at the time.

This is why the “ discovery “ of Alexander - the journey
to get him running & driving - the temporary public display
at The Early Ford V-8 Foundation Museum in Auburn, Indiana
is so important.
