From a young age, Honda's founder, Soichiro Honda (本田 宗一郎, Honda Sōichirō)
(17 November 1906 – 5 August 1991) had an interest in automobiles. He
worked as a mechanic at the Art Shokai garage, where he tuned cars and
entered them in races. In 1937, with financing from an acquaintance,
Kato Shichirō, Honda founded Tōkai Seiki (Eastern Sea Precision Machine Company) to make piston rings working out of the Art Shokai garage.After initial failures, Tōkai Seiki won a contract to supply piston rings to Toyota, but lost the contract due to the poor quality of their products.
After attending engineering school, without graduating, and visiting
factories around Japan to better understand Toyota's quality control
processes, Honda was able, by 1941, to mass produce piston rings
acceptable to Toyota, using an automated process that could employ even
unskilled wartime laborers.
