FORD BRAKES
ARE UNUSUALLY
EFFECTIVE
Reliability and safety
due to simple design and
careful construction
ONE OF the first things you will notice when you
drive the Ford is the quick, effective action of its
four-wheel brakes.
They are unusually safe and reliable because
they are mechanical, internal expanding, with all
braking surfaces fully enclosed. This prevents mud,
water, sand, etc., from getting between the band
and drum and interfering with brake action.
Other outstanding features of the Ford are the
Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield, four IIou
daille double-acting hydraulic shock absorbers,
aluminum pistons, torque-tube drive, more than
twenty ball and roller bearings, Rustless Steel,
reliability, economy, and long life.
You save when you buy the Ford and you save
every mile you drive.
