Well DD, you will note that I said Ford (as in the company) not Ford's (as in the passenger car).

The revolutionary automobile assembly line.

Yes, the first mass produced V8.

In '32/'34 advanced fully welded body's, in a mass produced car & trucks.

They where the first major manufacturer to enter a car in the Indianapolis 500 race.

The Lincoln had many advanced features.

Later Ford developed one of the MOST successful Indy car engines. Around the same time period, Ford funded the Ford Cosworth, Formula one engine. I'm not sure if it's success has been exceeded, even today. You could buy either one of those engines, if you had the money.

Ford also developed a a car, that won, I believe five Le Mans races. You could buy one of those cars (GT40), if you had the money.

BUT, note that I had a smiley face in my original statement.
