If bill gates went around rationing laws to do it yea.. It's called Treason. Aiding the enemy. While people were turning in any and all cast iron they could find for the war effort, Ford was shipping some of it to the enemy.
I'm going to need a citation of a real source that shows Henry Ford shipping products to Nazi Germany after the US entered WW2.
Keep in mind that the US had no intention of going near WW2 prior to Pearl Harbor.
In July 1942 word filtered back to Washington from Ford of France about Ford's activities on behalf of the German war effort in Europe. The incriminating information was promptly buried and even today only part of the known documentation can be traced in Washington.
A U.S. Air Force bombing intelligence report written in 1943 noted that,
Principal wartime activities [of the Ford plant] are probably manufacture of light trucks and of spare parts for all the Ford trucks and cars in service in Axis Europe
Not sure how accurate that is but, It seems to agree with other stuff I have read. Keep in mind that was years ago..It's not like I constantly research the topic.
