The 8-trackAh, yes. The infamous 8-track. Created by William Lear in 1965, that little (it really wasn't) innovation, based upon Earl "Madman" Muntz' 4-track cartridge took music to new levels. Essentially the first portable music medium (the Compact Cassette was created in '64 by Philips) that really caught on.
Lear was tied in to Ford through Motorola, which he had helped to found. This is the connection that allowed the players to adorn the underside of the dashes in Ford's entire line of 1966 cars.
