SUNDAY. .TEXT 11. 1037 Intended to make way for the large volume of "trade-ins", the mult of rery heavy sales of new Ford V-Bs, Ford dealers throughout Oregon and southern Washington are now en gaged In an Intensive used car sales activity, according to C. E. Gates and George Gates, local Ford dealers, whose firm 'is participating.

Twelve gold cups and 12.000 In cash are being awarded to winners at the conclusion of the drive July 30. ' Emphasis throughout the next several weeks of the used car drive la being placed upon Ford V-8 cars," states George Gates. "Because of the number of excellent late model Fords we have: recently taken In trade In connection with the sale of the 1937 types, we are featuring -these used Ford V-8 cars backed with an R. & O. money-back guarantee." "Slogan of this phase of the cam paign is 'the best used car la an n. & G. used Ford V-8.' Our firm 'is operating under the exclusive Ford R. A G. procedure. Used cars sold with the R. & G. label are reconditioned to Ford specifications and sold with a written, money-back guarantee, "Because of the protection afforded the used car buyer by this plan, the Ford S. ft G. procedure has been especially successful since Its Intro duction. More and more shoppers who visit Ford dealer used car lots are asking for R. ft G. cars. After all, they recognize it is far wiser In the long run to buy a used car which has been properly reconditioned and bears the dealer's guarantee, than to buy In the dark. Such cars cost no more, but they are worth far more in the long run. "In addition to the used Ford V-8s rn used car stocks. Ford dealers also carry a wide assortment of models of vsrlous other makes which .have been taken In trade on new Ford V8s. These cars also carry the R. ft O. money-back guarantee."

"Modern automobiles do not need the thorough attention given cars of a few years ago of muw. but In order to get from motor vehicles the maxi mum amount of efficiency, service and safety built into them by car manufacturers, the motorist should not overlook seasonal check-ups." Mr. Dobbs says. The mere change in weather from winter to summer is enough to war rant a general car Inspection, particu larly In view of the servicing necessi tated at this time by changes In lub ricants, detachment of heaters snd defrosters, and the attachment of summer accessories. Probably foremost In the minds of motorists at this time Is the change in lubricants, Mr. Dobbs points out. Engine lubricants should of course be changed to the proper grade espe cially prepared for summer operation. Likewise, the transmission and differ ential housings should be drained, flushed, and refilled with warm weather lubricants. A general motor "tune-up Is one of the Important phases of summer "car-cleaning." This should Include the cleaning, adjustment, and syn chronization of distributor points; the cleaning and adjustment of &park pi hit: the adjustment of he carbure Olve your car the purity of "get up and go" performance!
