DETROIT — Ford Motor Co., which posted industry record profits of nearly $4.63 billion for 1987, shared some of its wealth today by announcing its eligible hourly and salaried workers will receive profit-sharing checks averaging $3,700.
A record amount of more than $635 million will be distributed among about 160,000 eligible workers March 8, company spokesman Michael Moran said.
