I did that once, I can tell you that they originally made ballbearings for Italy in WW2, then they got bombed and made cars after the war.

Enzo was originally a race car driver, and he got the Ferrari crest from a WWI pilot, I believe.

He was originally a test car driver for Alfa Romeo. He got the icon/crest from that WW1 pilots father. But close enough.

well, he got permission from the father, but originally the pilot branded the prancing horse on his plane.

And Apparently, his neighbour was Ferricucio Lamborghini. I'm not sure about that one though. I know Lamborghini went into the car business when his clutch on his new Ferrari broke, he realized it was very similar to the ones on his tractors, so he thought he could make better cars for less than what Enzo was charging.
