    TBT: "Freddie Ford" turns 55

    In an era way before the Internet could answer your questions about Ford Motor Company and its products, there was Freddie Ford eager to help.

    Who is Freddie Ford, you ask? While he’s not an actual member of the founding Ford family, he played an important role as an ambassador for the company, beginning in the 1960s.

    Freddie Ford is actually an 800-pound, 9-foot-tall robot built from parts from vehicles of the era, as designers had intended to make him look like a medieval knight covered in a suit of armor. Hands made of brake shoes, oil pans for feet and Mustang parking lights for eyes were just a few of Freddie’s memorable body parts.
