I guess it depends on how much leeway you can be given for using “almost nothing” and “remotest connection to anything technical”, but Wikipedia says Ford Motor Company was incorporated in 1903 and the first assembly line dates to 1913.
Engine blocks are still cast, sheet metal is still bent, pressed, and rolled so I think there is a lot of the original years still around. Yes, I’ll give you that there have been huge advances in sophistication, but it seems to me the early years are still present.
I suspect that there's almost nothing going on at the Ford Motor Company that has even the remotest connection to anything technical that happened during the early years of the company's founding.
Sometimes, stuff just really does age out.
