Henry Ford has invented plastic cars. These cars took 12 years to be developed and they are the automobiles of the future. The panels were made under hydraulic pressure of 1,500 pounds psi and they need 30% resin binder and 70% of cellulose fibers from sisal, hemp and straw. Only the tubular welded frame is made of steel. These cars weight one ton, which is 1,000 pounds lighter than normal steel cars. Henry Ford’s cars were supposed to use ethanol. The inventor of the diesel engine, Rudolf Diesel, also designed his engines to run on seed and vegetable oils, such as hemp. Henry Ford believed that there is enough alcohol to drive the machinery used to cultivate the fields of vegetables
