Submitted by admin on Wed, 06/16/2021 - 8:12am

On Saturday, June 12, 2021, in the center of the Village of Belleville at the old train depot, a gathering was held for the 100th birthday celebration of Lee Stock's 1921 Model T. As part of the celebration the 1941 Belleville fire truck led participants on a tour through the streets of Belleville.
According to Wikipedia, the Ford Model T was only produced from 1908 until 1927, and was considered the first affordable automobile, which made car travel available to middle-class Americans. Between 1913 and 1927, Ford factories produced more than 15 million Model Ts.

Don't Worry About the Car in the Park

Submitted by admin on Wed, 06/16/2021 - 8:10am
