Henry Ford spent most of his life while doing a job as an engineer. He finally got success with his Model T when he was 45 years old. Also, he revolutionized the automobile industry with his innovative idea of moving assembly lines. By the introduction of assembly lines, he reduced the time it took to assemble a car from more than 12 hours to around 2.5 hours.
