VIDEO: Reinventing The Model T

Detroit (WWJ)  -- Students at Detroit's College for Creative Studies were challenged to re-invent the Model T as part of the 100th anniversary of the Ford vehicle that made cars available to everyday people. 

The students were asked to decide what a similar ground breaking vehicle would look like today.  Two of Ford's top designers chose one of the vehicles to go on display at the lobby of Ford World Headquarters.  The rest will be displayed at the Henry Ford Museum.
 
In the video below, WWJ AutoBeat Reporter Jeff Gilbert shows us some of the models created by the students.
