Ford Motor Company celebrated the 150 millionth car, truck or tractor to be built worldwide since its founding 75 years earlier. The milestone vehicle, a 1979 Mustang, was built at Ford’s Dearborn Assembly Plant. Ford by then had built 4 million tractors, 30 million trucks and 116 million cars since the first production vehicle—a two-cylinder Model A—was assembled at the original Mack Avenue Plant in Detroit and sold on July 23, 1903, five weeks after the company’s incorporation.
