I hope you don't mean the 1936 Ford they found floating in space after following it's ferric-oxide trail? Because that vehicle was still oozing complex hydrocarbons. Of course in 1936 the petrol tanks were much better and the starter batteries were made using a process now lost to us. After 400 years floating in deep space it started right up, blew a little bit of smoke and backfired once or twice but otherwise purred like a kitten. I would like to know the manufacturer of the tyres as they seemed to be correctly inflated. Then the AM radio picked up an SOS signal from an aeroplane that was a quick trip at warp 6 away. They made stuff so much better in the old days.
