Strongly built, the body rests upon that marvelous Ford chassis. It brings to the owner every modern-day convenience; easy riding, while sliding plate glass windows make it breezy and cool in hot weather; dust-proof and water-proof when the windows are closed—it is cozy and comfort able in inclement and wintry weather. Then there is the durability of the car, coupled with the low economy of first cost and the saving of money in operating expense. Behind it, and every other Ford car, is that unsurpassed “ Ford After-Service” which is given by the army of Ford dealers scattered all over the country, together with some 15,000 authorized garages, until the Ford owner is always within im mediate touch of dependable, reliable service, where the genuine made Ford parts, and the genuine Ford methods are applied in the care of this car. The Ford Coupe administers to a great variety of owners, from the physician to the traveling man, from the engineer to the architect, and then for a pleasure car for tw’o it is unbeatable. We ask your early order if you want a Ford Coupe, because we want to make delivery as quickly as we can but we must have a little time. Come in and talk it over.
