EcoLight: A Beginner’s Guide to LEDs
Lincoln and Cadillac had a standard founder: the stern, patrician Henry Martyn Leland, "Grasp of Precision." Leland and his associates formed Cadillac in 1902 from the remains of the Henry Ford Company -- which is why his first Cadillac and the primary manufacturing Ford, each named Model A, are so similar. William C. Durant purchased Cadillac in 1909 for his burgeoning Basic Motors. Leland, meantime, went off to construct Liberty aircraft engines during World Warfare I. Then, with son Wilfred, he returned to the automotive enterprise by forming Lincoln -- named for the U.S. At first, Ford Motor Company did little to change or update the Lincoln Model L that Leland had designed round 1920. Powered by a 385-cid V-eight with 90 brake horsepower, it was beautifully built and handsomely furnished. But by 1930 it was an anachronism: unfashionably upright and sluggish next to contemporary Cadillacs, Packards, and Chrysler Imperials. Its new 145-inch-wheelbase chassis carried a modernized, 120-bhp V-8 that retained "fork-and-blade" rods and three-piece solid-iron block/crankcase assembly, Leland engineering features that let adverts dwell lovingly on "precision-constructed" quality.
