Reply to "Power By Ford Emblem"

I think I read somewhere that Ford was unhappy that they were not getting any recognition on the car, so they made Alejandro install the "Power By Ford" emblem. Based on what Panterapatt contributed about s/n 1744, the Ford emblem may have been installed on vehicles even before Ford took over. Alejandro may have been using his emblem on all the European cars all along. It would be interesting to know if any of the early U.S. cars had Alejandro's emblem before they made hin change over, as Larry suggests, or if there was no emblem at all as seen in some of the early advertisements. The fact that the holes are located behind the brace make it difficult to prove the latter, and explain why they are mounted with push-ins, and not with studs and nuts.
