Detroit: April 2008 Archives
First of all, the print version of Tuesday's column again contains a mistake about the debuts of the Model Ts and Model As.
Wikipedia says this about the whole controversy.
I'm sure that when Bill Ruh wrote me he meant to say that Ford didn't produce the Model A until late 1927. (Of course as a caller just pointed out he might have meant that Ford produced the Model T until late 1927.)
When I cut and pasted his email into my column I didn't read it closely enough to make that distinction. But several readers have seen the error, so I've fixed it in the blog and will fix the online version as well.
Here's the link to the "Ruins of Detroit" website.
