Statement on the Death of Mose Nowland

Mose Nowland was one of the architects of Ford’s Le Mans victories in 1966 and 1967, and a key figure in our motorsport history.  A longtime engineer, Nowland spent his 57-year career developing Ford engines that led to major wins in sports cars, Indy cars, NASCAR and NHRA racing, and he received the Spirit of Ford Award in 2005.  His love for Ford continued after his retirement through his volunteer work at Henry Ford Museum and the Ford Fair Lane Estate. Mose will be missed and our heart goes out to his family.
