The Rouge Plant, where that was filmed, is still in production making full size trucks.

It has been in continuous use since 1928 when the Ford Model A was introduced.

You can tour the plant through the Henry Ford Museum:

Interestingly enough, Ford went dark when transitioning from the Model T production at Highland Park to the Model A production at the Rouge. That is almost never done. It was a big deal then (as it would be now), generating a lot of interest and excitement around the new vehicle.
