Canada
Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited was incorporated in 1904 following an agreement signed by Henry Ford and his company, Ford Motor Company (founded in 1903) and Gordon McGregor of Walkerville Wagon Works, under the initiative of Ford. Ford became number one in production and in sales in Canada until the 1930's when yearly styling changes due to competition with GM were well received by consumers. It remained one of the first 3 main car manufacturers in Canada for many decades.
Function
Owner driven passenger vehicle for general transportation.
Technical
In 1932, Ford introduced the flathead V8 engine. This re-introduced Ford's one piece cast block technology which produced in the industry with the Model T engine in 1908. In 1932 Ford's V8 was the first one piece cast iron V8 engine block. Those two engines set the standard for all car engines to this day. Even motorcycle and outboard engines eventually adopted the one piece cast (aluminum) block. This model was first introduced in 1937 by Ford with many changes: style borrowed from the Lincoln Zephyr, solid wheels instead of spoked wheels, teardrop-shaped headlights, alligator s style hood with radiator ornament being also a hood latch, all-steel body, safety glass.
