Ford's Assembly Line
http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2...00/?refer=news
"Assembly lines and even moving assembly lines were not developed by Henry Ford or his staff. The first automotive assembly line is credited to Ransom E. Olds, who, according to Helen Jones Earley and James R. Walkinshaw in their book Setting the Pace: Oldsmobile’s First 100 Years, implemented a system of wheeled carts, fixed stations and repetitive operations to construct the Curved Dash Oldsmobile as early as 1901."
