Tehy look strong enough, but the metal isn't there the strong, durable Vanadium steel that goes into the Ford chassis and every Ford part. Ford parts are especially cast and heat-treated, each ac cording to its use. Some require a hard, flint-like wearing surface, other need resilency, and some need just "toughness." Ford metallurgists have been studying these problems for sixteen years and know just how each unit should be made to endure a maximum of wear and tear. They know that best results can be obtained only by the use of special formulas for different parts, and that honest Ford parts wear from thirty-five to one hundred per cent longer than counterfeits We carry complete assortment! of genuine Ford'arts for both passenger cars and trucks. And trucks. And our garage is equipped to give care-ful, prompt Ford service from minor adjust ments to complete overhauls. Drive in, it's better to be safe than sorry.
