Founded by Henry Ford in Detroit in 1903, and the company that decided a car built on a moving assembly line, of interchangeable parts, was worth more than a car built by hand.[1] The Model T was the proof; everything the company has done since has had to live up to, or live down, that first idea.

Logo: File:Ford logo flat.svg · Ford Motor Company. Displayed unmodified to identify Ford's own vehicles, editorially and without any suggestion of endorsement or affiliation. Commons records the file as public domain for copyright purposes with an explicit 'trademarked' restriction; the basis for display here is trademark nominative use, not a copyright licence. Commons serves this SVG's imageinfo entry as a rasterised PNG thumbnail rather than the vector original, so the copy stored here is that PNG.

Accent colour: Sampled directly from the dominant pixel colour of the downloaded logo file (rgb(0,9,91), 740,390 of the opaque non-white pixels) rather than guessed. Ford does not publish a public brand-colour specification, so this is not presented as an official brand asset.
