Yes, it is trademarked.  You can do whatever you want with it for your own personal use, but you cannot profit from it in any way without having a license through Ford.

 

At least, that's my understanding.  But I'm no lawyer.

Hi balcklucas. fordmatpwn above is correct.

 

The simple answer to "if i owned a manufacturing shop, could I replicate the blue Ford oval emblem commonly found on many of their vehicles?" is no, you can not. And Ford aggressively protects its logo and intellectual property.

 

Good luck.
