Building the B-24 Bomber during WWII “Story of Willow Run”

Made by the Ford Motor Company during WWII, “The Story of Willow Run” explains the company’s role in producing the Consolidated B-24 Liberator heavy bomber. Narrated by Harry Wismer, the film explains how Ford manufactured and built B-24 Liberators under license from Consolidated Aircraft Company. Production rates were so great at the plant that a new B-24 rolled off the production line every 55 minutes.
