Ford Field Retractable Roof
I couldnt believe this when I heard it on the radio, they said Gilbert was going to talk to the Fords about the feasibility of changing the roof at the stadium to accommodate MLS. I know it will never happen, and I hate soccer in any shape or form but, open air Lions games sound great to me. I’m all for it, make a great football stadium even better.

In 1957 Skyliner Retractable sales were a modest 20,766
It’s no big deal! Ford built its first retractable roof back in 1957. The hard top folded-up into the trunk. Stop and think how difficult that was with 1950’s technology. It was like putting a man on the moon. Get those old engineers out of retirement and put them to work on this project.Attachment 36155
