The Ford V-8 has established itself among fine cars as an out standing value. It provides the qualities which people desire most—safety, riding comfort, roominess, appearance, power—to a degree uncommon in a car of low price. That is why it has been rightly called “The Quality Car in the Low-Price Field.” To make Ford V-8 ownership possible for still more people, the 1937 car is offered with two engine sizes. 85-horsepower for maximum performance. 60-horse-power for maximum economy. The smaller 60-horsepower V-8 engine brings to the Ford line lower operating costs; and the lowest Ford price in years. It is optional in the 5-window Coupe and in closed sedan types with out De Luxe equipment. Beyond the choice of power plants, the 1937 Ford V-8 is one car—in size, appearance, comfort, all-steel body, Easy-Action Safety Brakes and mechanical excellence. Its wider range of usefulness makes it more than ever The Universal Car.
