Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.                     

  [Pursuant to Rule 13d-2(c), the following information is restated in its
entirety from Item 2 of the Initial Schedule 13D.]                              

Ford paid to the Issuer, out of working capital of Ford, the sum of   
$100,000,000 for one share of the Issuer's Series F Convertible Preference Stock
(the "Series F Preference Stock").                                              

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.                                                

  [Pursuant to Rule 13d-2(c), the following information is restated in its
entirety from Item 2 of the Initial Schedule 13D.]                              

Ford acquired the Series F Preference Stock for investment under an   
Investment Agreement with the Issuer dated July 16, 1990. A copy of the         
Investment Agreement is appended hereto as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated by     
reference. The description herein of the Investment Agreement is qualified in   
its entirety by the complete text of Exhibit 1.                                 

 The Series F Preference Stock, which has no voting rights, will convert
into 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer upon (i) the expiration or  
earlier termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust 
Improvements Act of 1976 (the "HSR Act") in respect of the convertibility of the
Series F Preference Stock and (ii) the listing, subject to notice of issuance,  
of the shares of Common Stock into which the Series F Preference Stock is       
convertible on the New York Stock Exchange or as otherwise provided in Section  
3.1(c) of the Investment Agreement. Ford expects to make the Premerger          
Notification filing under the HSR Act within the next few days, and, following  
such filing and termination of the waiting period thereunder, the Series F      
Preference Stock will automatically convert into 1,600,000 shares of Common     
Stock of the Issuer without further action by Ford. If conversion of the Series 
F Preference Stock does not occur within certain time periods specified in the  
Investment Agreement, the Issuer is obligated, at the election of Ford, to      
repurchase the Preference Stock in exchange for the purchase price              
($100,000,000) plus accrued but unpaid dividends. Until conversion of the Series
F Preference Stock occurs, the Issuer will pay dividends quarterly on each full 
share thereof at the annual rate of $3,250,000. The Articles of Amendment of the
Issuer's Restated Articles of Incorporation relating to the Series F Preference 
Stock are set forth as Exhibit A to the Investment Agreement.                   

     Upon the conversion of the Series F Preference Stock, Ford will be entitled
to designate one person for election to the Issuer's Board of Directors.        
Commencing with the 1992 annual meeting, Ford will be entitled to designate a   
number of directors proportional to its ownership interest (rounded down to the 
nearest whole number), provided, however, that if Ford holds at least 20% of the
voting power of the then outstanding Voting Securities (as defined in the       
Investment Agreement) Ford will be entitled to designate at least two directors.
Ford's designations will be made after consultation with the Issuer and must be 
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer. The Issuer is obligated to use its       
reasonable best efforts to cause Ford's designees to be elected, including      
recommending to its Board of Directors the inclusion of Ford's designees in the 
slate of nominees recommended by the Board to the Issuer's stockholders. The    
Issuer has represented to Ford that it has taken all steps necessary to increase
the size of its Board of Directors and to fill a vacancy thereon created by such
increase in size with Ford's designee effective upon the conversion of the      
Series F Preference Stock into Common Stock. Ford's right to designate directors
for election to the Issuer's Board of Directors will terminate if Ford sells    
Voting Securities such that it ceases to own at least 10% of the total voting   
power of then outstanding Voting Securities.

---------------------                ---                 -----------------      

Section 3.2 of the Investment Agreement contains certain standstill,  
voting, sales and other restrictions applicable to Ford with respect to Voting  
Securities of the Issuer. Included among such restrictions is a percentage      
limitation on shares of Voting Securities Ford may own during the term of the   
Agreement. Such percentage limitation, initially set at 10.8% of the total      
voting power of all outstanding Voting Securities, would increase upon the      
occurrence of certain specified events, including Ford's exercise of rights to  
purchase additional Voting Securities under Section 3.1(g) of the Investment    
Agreement and under the Stock Option Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and 
incorporated by reference herein. Ford has agreed to vote its Voting Securities 
of the Issuer for the election of all nominees included in the Company's slate  
of directors at each shareholders' meeting of the Issuer. Ford is not otherwise 
restricted in the manner in which it may vote its Voting Securities on any      
matter submitted to the Issuer's shareholders.                                  

     The Issuer has amended the Rights Agreement (Exhibit 3 hereto), dated as of
September 9, 1986, between the Issuer and the Rights Agent (as defined therein) 
to permit the acquisition by Ford of Common Stock of the Issuer as provided for 
in the Investment Agreement and has agreed to make additional amendments thereto
as provided in Section 3.1(i) of the Investment Agreement.                      

The term of the Investment Agreement is for a minimum of six years and
continues until the earlier to occur of (i) Ford ceasing to beneficially own at 
least 5.0% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding Voting         
Securities and (ii) ten years; provided, however, that certain provisions of the
Investment Agreement, as set forth in Section 5.1. thereof, survive termination.
For so long as Ford beneficially owns 15% or more of the outstanding Voting     
Securities as a result of acquisitions of such securities during the term of the
Investment Agreement, Ford has agreed that it will not commence a tender offer  
or exchange offer for Voting Securities or Voting Security Equivalents (as      
defined in the Investment Agreement), except as permitted in Section 3.2(f) of  
the Investment Agreement, or engage in certain other activities, as described in
Sections 3.2(a) (ii) and (iii), unless requested or permitted in writing in     
advance by the Issuer. For so long as Ford beneficially owns 5% or more of the  
Voting Securities, it has agreed not to act in concert with Tenneco Inc. and    
Kubota Corporation, each of which purchased convertible preference stock from   
the Issuer effective July 16, 1990, with respect to the activities set forth in 
Sections 3.2(a)(i) through (ix) of the Investment Agreement.                    

 While Ford has no current plans to acquire additional securities of the
Issuer, Ford has an option to purchase from the Issuer 1,480,702 shares of      
Common Stock exercisable over a six-year period from the date of the Stock      
Option Agreement. If such option shares, when added to those owned by Ford at   
the time of exercise of the option, do not represent at least 20% of the voting 
power of all then outstanding Voting Securities (provided Ford has not sold any 
Common Stock as permitted in Section 3.2(b)(v) of the Investment Agreement),    
then Ford may purchase in the open market the number of additional Voting       
Securities of the Issuer required to reach the 20% level. The per share price to
be paid by Ford to the Issuer upon the exercise of the option will be at least  
120% of the average market price over the 30 trading days prior to exercise,    
subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Stock Option Agreement.          

     In addition to Ford's right to purchase option shares, if the Issuer issues
or sells, or proposes to issue or sell, to any person Voting Securities or      
Voting Security Equivalents representing, in the aggregate, a percentage greater
than 10% of the total voting power of all Voting Securities then outstanding    
(the "Higher Percentage"), then, under Section 3.1(g)(ii) and (iii) of the      
Investment Agreement, Ford, at its election, may purchase from the Issuer, for  
the same consideration (or cash equivalent thereof) per share and on the same   
terms, that number of Voting Securities or Voting Security Equivalents as would 
result in Ford holding the Higher Percentage. In the event of any proposed      
issuance of Voting Securities or Voting Security Equivalents, Ford has the right
to purchase from the Issuer Voting Securities or Voting Security Equivalents

---------------------                ---                 -----------------      

in order to maintain its percentage of the total voting power of Voting         
Securities. As an additional purchase right of Ford, under Section 1.6 of the   
Stock Option Agreement, if one or more Manufacturers (as defined in the         
Investment Agreement) (i) files a Schedule 13D regarding the acquisition of     
Voting Securities of the Issuer in the open market or through privately         
negotiated transactions or (ii) makes an HSR Act filing evidencing an intent to 
acquire such Voting Securities, the Issuer must give Ford notice thereof and    
Ford will have the right to purchase from the Issuer, if the Issuer so elects,  
or through open market purchases, additional Voting Securities in an amount     
equal to the highest total voting power owned by any such Manufacturer up to 10%
of the total voting power of the Issuer's Voting Securities at the time of      
acquisition.                                                                    

For the term of the Investment Agreement, the Issuer has agreed not to
issue or sell Voting Securities or Voting Security Equivalents to any           
Manufacturer (as defined in Section 3.1(h)). This provision does not apply to   
Voting Securities issued in a widespread public distribution.                   

  Except as stated above, neither Ford nor, to the best knowledge of Ford,
any person identified in Attachments I and II, has any plans or proposals as of 
the date hereof which relate to or would result in:                             

   (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer,
or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;                                 

(b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,         
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; 

    (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any
of its subsidiaries;                                                            

(d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the 
Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of

CUSIP No. 231021 10 6                13D                 Page 7 of 8 Pages      
---------------------                ---                 -----------------      

  On January 3, 1997, the Issuer repurchased from Ford, at a price of $44.25
per share, 1,300,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer owned by Ford.        
As a result of this transaction, which reduced the percentage of the issued and 
outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by Ford to 4.8%, the  
Investment Agreement terminated by its terms, except to the extent that certain 
provisions thereof survive termination as provided in Section 5.1 thereof. In   
addition, on July 16, 1996, the Stock Option Agreement, under which the Issuer  
had granted Ford an option to purchase 1,480,702 shares of the Issuer's Common  
Stock, expired by its terms.                                                    

Item 5.    Interest in Securities of the Issuer.                                

  [Pursuant to Rule 13d-2(c), the following information is restated in its
entirety from Item 2 of the Initial Schedule 13D.]                              

  (a) The Series F Preference Stock is, and the Common Stock into which it
will convert will be, beneficially owned by Ford. The 1,600,000 shares of Common
Stock issuable to Ford upon conversion of the Series F Preference Stock         
represent 10.8% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock as of July 10, 1990, 
after giving effect to conversion of the Series T and Series K Convertible      
Preference Stock issued to Tenneco and Kubota, respectively, as of July 16,     
1990, and the issuance of Common Stock under the Agreement, dated as of July 16,
1990, between the Issuer and J.I. Miller, X. Miller and C.M. Tangeman. Assuming 
all such conversions and issuances of Common Stock, Ford's 1,600,000 shares of  
Common Stock, when added to the 1,480,702 shares of Common Stock that Ford has  
an option to purchase from the Issuer under the Stock Option Agreement,         
represent 18.9% of the Issuer's issued and outstanding Common Stock as of July  
10, 1990. To the best knowledge of Ford, none of the individuals identified in  
Attachments I and II owns beneficially any shares of the Issuer's Common Stock. 

    (b) Upon conversion of the Series F Preference Stock, and upon exercise of
the option set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, Ford will have the sole     
power to vote and the sole power to dispose of all of the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by Ford.                                                     

   (c) In the past 60 days, neither Ford nor, to the best knowledge of Ford,
any of the individuals identified in Attachments I and II, has engaged in any   
transaction in the classes of securities covered by this statement except for   
the transaction herein reported on.                                             

(d) No person other than Ford has the right to receive or the power to
direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the     
shares of the Issuer herein reported on.                                        

(e) Not applicable.                                                   

   [The following information is furnished as part of Ford's Amendment No. 1
to the Initial Schedule 13D and supplements the information set forth under Item
5 of the Initial Schedule 13D restated above.]                                  

 (a) As of the date of this Amendment No. 1 to the Initial Schedule 13D,
Ford is the beneficial owner of 1,900,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, 
which represents 4.8% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer. 

 (b) Ford has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of all 1,900,000
shares of the Issuer's Common Stock owned by Ford as of the date of this        
Amendment No. 1 to the Initial Schedule 13D and the sole power to dispose or to 
direct the disposition of such shares.

officer or director of Ford has had any transactions in the Common Stock of the
