The Ford Motor Company produced Model Ts at its plant at Broad and Lehigh Streets in Philadelphia until the end of Model T production in 1927. After closing its Philadelphia plant, Ford opened an assembly plant in Chester, PA, that supplied cars to East coast dealers and for foreign export until 1961.
