Description
(Original Caption) Today's rising food prices make the common soybean a highly prized agricultural product. Three decades ago, it almost became a prime ingredient in manufacturing automobiles. The soybean car developed by Henry Ford made its debut in 1941, and to demonstrate its strength, Ford smashed a fire axe flat side into an apparently normal Ford Coupe, as seen here. World War II halted his production plans for this car.
