In February 1927, two key moments were crucial in Ford's history and marked the beginning of a new chapter in the company’s long legacy of automobile manufacturing:

1) End of Model T Production: On February 1927, production of the Model T officially ended. Henry Ford made the decision to discontinue the Model T and move to the Model A, despite the former being one of the most successful vehicles in automotive history. The last Model T rolled off the assembly line on May 26, 1927, but the preparations for this transition began in February.

2) Introduction of the Ford Model A: The Ford Model A was officially introduced to the public on February 4, 1927. This was a major event in the automotive industry, as the Model A replaced the extremely popular Ford Model T, which had been in production for nearly 19 years. The Model A marked a new era for Ford with updated styling, improved engineering, and more advanced features.
