When I worked at Ford everyone knew that when a vehicle was "SK'D" it was OK and ready for shipment to a dealer. SK were the initials of the first ever final line inspector at Ford's first mass production plant in the USA, AFAIK his initials are still used at every Ford plant in the world to tell everyone that a vehicle is finished.
