ODELTFORD
THE Ford Motor Company is making a new car, but it is still proud
of the Model T. It wants every owner of one of these cars to run
it as long as possible at a minimum of expense.
Because of this policy and because of the investment that millions of
motorists have in Model T cars, the Ford Motor Company is devoting a
large part of its factories to making parts, in order that owners may
enjoy uninterrupted service for many years to come.
More than eight million Model T Fords are' still in active service, and
many of them can be driven for two, three and five years and even longer
at small cost. .
New fenders, for instance, cost from S3. 30 to $5 each, with a labor
charge of SI to $2.50. Tuning up the motor and replacing commutator
case, brush and vibrator points costs only $1, with a small charge for
material. Brake shoes can be installed and emergency brakes equalized
ojr a labor charge of only $1.25. A lubor charge1 of $4 to $5 will cover
the overhauling of the front axle, rcbushing springs and spring perches,
and straightening, aligning and adjusting wheels.
The labor charge for .overhauling the average rear axle runs from
$5.75 to $7. Grinding valves and cleaning carbon can be done for
$3 to $4. . " .
A set of four new pistons costs only $7 and an installation charge of $6.
For a labor charge of $20 to $25 you can have your motor .and trans
mission completely overhauled. Parts are extra.
All of these prices are approximate, of course, because the cost of
materials needed will depend on the condition of each car. They show,
however, the low cost of putting the Model T Ford in shape for thou
sands of miles of additional service, i '
See the nearest Ford dealer, therefore, and have him estimate on the
. cost of reconditioning your Model T Ford. He will tell you, in advance,
exactly how much the complete job will cost.

In March, 1916, a Hudson model
H touring cat Serial H 4075. En

factory to the Pacific coast where

pun, limited of Victoria, B. C,
tella the remarkable history of this
car In Its 12 years ot continuous
bard service:
"TUis car, originally used as a
taxi, was purchased by our com
pany second hand in 1917. and con
vened into a fifteen passenger
stage In 1918, for operation be

along with a . . . and . . . (Both
cars selling at over $3,000). The
first car Is worn out and junked
long ago. The second Is still op

Six motor installed to replace the
original motor discarded years
ago.
" 'Old Faithful" has now gone
over 412,000 miles of recorded
service. The motor was rebored
and new pistons fitted at 300,000
miles. Tho original crankshaft has
never been turned down and 1b

bearings.

' Substantial results of Nash pre
sentation day are rolling into the
factory tn the form of record cur
orders. They range from the ac
tual sale of 370 of the new cars
in Chicago on the big day to or
ders for four an five cars from
isolated dealers in the fur west
and north. In Tunelo. Miss.. 2.500
'visitors placed orders for 44 caw,
while the Eldorado, Ark., dealer
did not close up shop for the day
until new Nash owners drove away
his five sample cars and booked
orders for fifteen additional mo

Industry, unfilled retail orders for

City, Pa., with only 6.000 inhabi

without a Bingle demonstration of
the cars outside of the salesroom.
As a result, the Nash factory
program for three months calls
for an output of 60,000 units, or
one-third more than the number
ever produced in a similar period.

heard from.
Compnn? officials see In this
unprecedented demonstration of
public Interest in the Nash maliu-taclu'-lng
achievement a healthy
sumniet and fall period for tho
automobile industry generally, and
a significant indication that Uncle
Ham's political campaigns wfll
have little effect this year on hlsc
business activities. In the opin
ion of C. W. Nash, whoso thirty
flvo years of successful manu
facturing in the vehicle field has
culminated In the production nf
these sixteen new cars, the 192S
20 season will exceed by a sulh
slantiu) margin any sales year In
Nash history.
"This enthusiastic acceptance,
which has surpassed all expecta

us proof positive that the Ameri

in particular, the public hits a deep

With summer driving days just
ahead, the addition of a sport road
ster in the Victory Six line has
been announced by Dodge Broth
ers, Inc., to meet the demand for
an open car combining Victory Six
performance with smartness and
attractive color combinations.
Six wire wheels, the two spares
being carried in wella of the front
fenders, aro standard equipment
with trunk rack in the rour. With
tho top down, the windshield can
bo pushed over forward to afford
unobstructed vision.
Heavy nickel plating features
the roadster equipment throughout,
lending unusual beauty to its
sweeping, graceful lines. Included
in the nickel finish are steering
column, gear shirt and handbrake
levers, bumpers, windshield frame
nnd automatic wiper, cowl lamps
and molding, head lamps and
stanchions, door handles, spare
the carriers and locks, hood hinge
and latches and hub caps.
Upholstery is of best quality pig
skin, blending in with color trim
mings and lacquer body finish.
Three passengers can be seated
comfortably In the front seat. Me
chanically, innovation of the sport
roadster Include the starting but
ton on the instrument board in
stead ot on the floor, and an
glue temperature Indicator under
the glass instrument panel grouped
wim on gauge, speedometer, am
meter and fuel gauge. A hooded
nickel plated dash lamp Is provid
ed, bpark nnd throttle control lev

wheel while the light switches are
on the steering column within
easy reach.
All Victory Six features, Includ
ing Lockheed internal expanding
nyurauuc makes, sturdy body con
struction and powerful flexible en

nre emphasized In production of
tho sport roadster priced at f 1,245,

The now "Twin Ignition" motor, in
the new Advanced and Special Nash
'400" models, is a truly amazing
development in power
It is a high-compression motor, with
two ignition coils, instead of 'one, ,,
two spark plugs per cylinder, iustcud
of one, 360 sparks per second at top
speed, instead of 1H0, to thoroughly
and economically burn tho highly
compressed gases
It sets a precedent in motor-perform
once among all motor cars.
Nash "100' Advanced Six models are
now cupuble of 75 to 80 miles per hour
with no effort at all.
Nash "100" Special Six models do 70
to 75 with consummate case
Another major advantage of the
"Twin Ignition motor Is economy
more power, more speed, less gas
oline ' ! -
Drive a new Nash "400" and you'll
see what Twin-Ignition and high
compression have done to give the
world a new and finer motor car.
