Late in 2007 Federal-Mogul filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy and reorganized.
I remember a Federal-Mogul magazine ad from the mid 1970's featuring a vision of the automotive future with Syd Mead artwork (or maybe it was Bendix brake pads). I cannot seem to find it on line, but will post it if I do.

It will be interesting to see which segment of the market picks up on this new technology.
