Master-Guide applies hydraulic steering power automatic
colly '. . . and in varying degrees as required. , . right at
the steering linkage, close to the wheels, 'At the some time
the system serves as a hydraulic shock absorber to keep
road jars and jolts from your hands. As a result all you
do is., .guide the car... Master-Guide supplies the muscles. '

It's the newest in a long list of Ford advancements that
make this Ford the outstanding car for '53!
N ether car near Ford's price has ever offered you so much!
Ford va the first in its field to bring you V-8 power. Today, Ford alone of all the low
priced cars offers you the smooth, unsurpassed performance of a V-8 engine. And Ford's
t Six the most modern in the industry with Overdrive, won the Grand Sweepstakes in this
year's Mobilgas Economy Run.
Ford first brought to the low-price field a completely automatic transmission that
combines the smoothness of a torque converter and the gas-saving "go" of automatic gears.
Fordemstie remains the most versatile automatic you can buy.
Ford's new "ride" brings you curve-hugging and bump-leveling qualities never before
known in lew-priced cars. Front end road shock alone has been reduced up to 80.
Easier-acting suspended pedals, Center-Fill Fueling and Full-Circle Visibility are just
few of the many other important advancements first introduced by Ford.
- ." Anf now Ford brings you the newest and finest in power steering , . . Master-Guide, a
system exclusive in Fonts field! It's no wonder, then, that Ford is the "Worth More" car,
. . . wertb more when you buy it ... worth more when you sell it.
HELPS YOU OUT OF "TIGHT SPOTS." Th. tougher the going the mora
Matter-Guide works for you. For example, if you go off the pavement onto a
soft shoulder or a rough, rutted road, Master-Guide provides the muscles to
keep you on a stead course. At the same time, Master-Guide absorbs the
shock that might otherwise be transmitted to the steering wheel. You'll find all
handling is easier with Master-Guide and that parking requires only one-fourth
the normal effort. Should Master-Guide ever lose Its power, the standard steer
ing mechanism will operate just as usual. Thus, Master-Guide provides new
ease and stability, with a natural feel and full security, wherever you may drive.
