Ford is lowest priced* of the lou'-price three, yet offers rallies you'd expect only in cars costing fa r more! To start with, you can easily pay twice the money, and not find lines that can hold a candle to Fords tor lowness, loveliness, or just plain gixxl taste. But step insid«. T in t s when ye« II find the reol evidence of Fords quality! And, on the wav in, note that Ford offers dixir checks that hold doors open in either of two positions—for easy en trance or exit. A little thing. But, m a fine car, whs not? Then, inside, notice how comfortable those plush, foam- rubber seats are. They ’ll stay that way And on long trips For they’re scientif ically contoured over non-sag springs. Your rear-seat passengers are treated extra kindly, t<x> with spring assists to help them open and close the doors — with the most leg room in Ford's field! Fine cars ore sm o o th -o n d that's another place Ford really shows its s t v f ! Ford delis its its famous \ -8 power siinxith as i w hisper. I hat s liecause only Ford tnkes the pains to electron ically lialance each engine while run ning tinder its own power. Not even the makers of the most expensive automo biles go this far to bring you super- sm«x>th ¡serformance. Fort! rides fine-car smooth and quiet, too. You can thank the new 'Inner Ford" for that Ford, for instance, has G e t in o n t h e f u n a n d s a v in g s n o w th e n e w k in d o f a swept-back front suspension that actually “rolls with the punch" of every road bump. Ford’s rear springs automatically ad just to give the right ride for every road. And Ford keeps things quiet, with the most sound insulation in its field. Fin« cars are built to stay solid. So's Ford! Ford has the only frame in its field to make use of rugged tubular steel beams. No car at the price offers so many roof strengthening beams. Expensive cars aren’t built of thicker Ixxly steel or with sounder engineering skill. Then, of course, in Ford you can have all the power assists and other conveniences found in fine cars And they cost far less in Ford * Yes sir' In even feature, even part. Ford is the fine car at half the fine-car price. Come in and see!
