Ford Hemp Car

Old archival footage of Ford's 1941 hemp car. I got a recent brochure from Ford and in the eco-friendly section it says they are using hemp again. Didn't say which models or what exact parts would be hemp but hey, there's hope yet.

Even if you think it sounds hippie-like or cliched, Hemp could save the world in many ways.

This petite hippy Hemp car reminds me of Mr. Bean's green car.

To think this technology was crushed 70 years ago and has virtually been forgotten about until recently.

Where would we be if Ford's Biofuel lab wasn't shut down in the early 40's or if the world didn't bow down to the Dupont/Hearst Global Propaganda campaign to end Industrial Hemp.

Hemp is the single greatest natural resource on the planet...and the world is finally starting to wake up.

So... is there any videos or sources with some more in-depth details? Like the manufacturing process of both car and fuel, statistics on mileage, production cost etc?

Lighter than steel? Can withstand ten times the impact force? WTF is going on here? I can see how insurance companies wouldn't gain financially by having these cars on the road. But then wouldn't we be safer? so hold up, insurance companies are not as worried about our safeties as much as they are worried about their back pockets? hmmm..

what is the process for making auto body panels from hemp? I think i'll use that to make

a hemp hood for my car.  Hmm...

@dudefromtheearth high five... nice to hear people realizing what this plant is all about, and realizing the truth behind the prohibition. It clearly has industrial roots. Cheers

@dave777blaster Right on!

@SimulacronX You got that right! I read all about it in the Great Book Of Hemp! There's a reason its been suppressed though obviously. It got in the way of someones bushiness. Henry Ford was really a good man, and like president Wilson, he just made mistake taking his company in the direction of the dirty industrial revolution.

I read about this in The Great Book Of Hemp. They did it then, and they can do it now! Fuck the dirty industrial revolution! Its time for the renewable energy revolution to takes course! It will set us free!
