The elder Henry Ford had been reluctant to bid farewell to the venerable 'T'. but once he reached accord wîth son Edsel (who fought to build a new car). Henry plunged headlong into the Model A project. He designed the new chassis and engine himself. while Edsel oversaw the styling. The Model A's styling was sophisticated and derived mainly from Lincoln. which was overseen by Edsel. The Ford factory was idle for 6 months pending a change-over to the Model A.
